A record is a location of a specific place or thing.  Your database will be filled with many records when you start adding locations to your system.  To control these records you have many choices on the menu...

 

Browse All:
This link will take you to a page that will list all your records in one place.  It's a great way to see all your records and to manage them.

 


Add Record:
This link will take you to a new form where you can type in all the information about a new record and save it to the database.

 


Edit Record:
This link will take you to a search form where you can enter information to search on, to find a specific record that you wish to edit the information.  Enter as much info to narrow down your search results.

 


Delete Record:
This link will take you to a search form where you can enter information to search on, to find a specific record that you wish to delete from the system.  Remember:  once a record is deleted, it is gone forever.

 


Import Records:
This link will take you to a page that will allow you to import your records from a list.  This is the 'bulk upload' routine that is used when you have many records that you wish to import at one time.

Export Record:
This link will take you to a page that will allow you to export all of your location data. You can then download the file to your computer and open in Excel for printing, etc...

 


Approve Records:
If you allow visitors to add locations to your locator, then you will surely want to approve them before they go live.  This link will take you to a page that will show you any/all records that are flagged as pending.  You will have a chance to review them, then either approve them for inclusion or delete them from the system.  You can also click on the name of the location to edit it, before approving it.

 


Import Categories:
This link will take you to a page that will allow you to import a list of location & categories into the system.  If you only have a few locations you wish to assign categories or products to, you can use the 'Edit Location' tool to select which categories or products a location shall belong too, but if you have dozens and dozens or hundreds and thousands of locations & categories or products, then you can import them from a list.

More information about importing Categories/Products can be found here...
