AUTHORITY CONTROL FACILITIES
• Create Facility Records
for Each Building
• Add Records for
Individual Areas and
Rooms
• Continue Breakdown to
Aisles, Cabinets, Shelves
as Needed
• We now recommend a
full hierarchy for each
Location rather than
using Facility Levels
• Help Desk can provide a
script to generate
Facilities from Levels
All inventory functions work best when a clean, consistent list of physical locations
is created using the Facilities Authority

6. • Location Pop-Up List is
generated from the Facilities
Authority where Available = Y
• Facilities Browser has the
exact same functionality as
the browser accessed from
the Location Activity
• The Location History for the
Container is underneath the
main Location Anchor field
• If a Container is nested in a
container, the smaller
container and its contents
inherit the location of the
largest container
