Location Groups Screen

Last Updated: Thu Nov 23 2023

Location Groups are configured in Setup / Usage Rating / Locations / Location Groups

Overview

Location groups are comprised of multiple GeoTree locations which together define a new territory where specific usage rates are applicable (e.g. spanning multiple cities, provinces, countries, etc.). Once a location group is added you will be able to configure it on any rate which is setup to use the GeoTree as its rater (rates that use a class based rater are not location based).

Prerequisites

  • Locations need to be configured in the GeoTree in order to setup location groups

Location Groups Panel

The Location Groups panel on the left of this screen allows you to select existing groups to view and edit on the Edit Location Group panel to the right. Actions are also available in this panel which are shown as icons above the Filter text box. The available actions are described below.
