  2. Make your changes on the Locations tab in the form area on the right side of the page
  3. Click the Save button

To delete a location:

Before you can delete a location, you must make sure that no users are associated with the location you want to delete so that access to the platform is not interrupted. To do this, go to the Users tab and use the Export button to export a list of Users and Locations for review.

After you have removed all associations to the location, click on the location name and click the Delete button on the lower right.

Note: Do not delete the Pica9 location. This is used for troubleshooting. 

How to Automatically Create and Edit Locations

Locations can be imported automatically as a one-time import or on an ongoing basis to create new locations and updating existing ones. For more information, see "Location Import".
