Location Hierarchy – Structure
Gemini simplifies location management with a two-level hierarchy: Primary Locations (like plants or buildings) and Sub Locations (such as floors, rooms, or zones). They’re nested for easy organization and smooth management. 🏢
In Gemini, work orders are directly associated with a specific location and asset. When you assign a sublocation or child asset to a work order, it is linked exclusively to that sublocation or child asset. Meaning, in reports and searches, the work order will appear under the assigned sublocation or child asset and will not be visible when filtering by the parent location or parent asset.
Key Points:
-
Direct Association: Work orders are tied to the exact location and asset selected during their creation.
-
Reporting Implications: If a work order is assigned to a sublocation, it will be listed under that sublocation in reports. It won’t appear under the parent location unless specifically filtered to include sublocations.
-
Filtering Considerations: To view work orders across both parent and sublocations, ensure your filters are set to encompass all relevant levels of your location hierarchy.
For optimal organization and reporting, it’s advisable to establish a clear naming convention for your locations and assets. This practice aids team members in understanding the hierarchy and ensures accurate assignment and retrieval of work orders.
💡Create a clear naming structure within your account to help your team members understand things better.
Example:
-
Parent Location Name = Warehouse 1
-
Sub-Location = Floor 1 – Warehouse 1
