What are locations?

Project locations signify to RDrive what area of the project each issue or process belongs to.

For example, each location can signify a different room, so when an Issue is added the system knows that it has been added to Room 01 and not Room 02 or 03. An issue report will also state the location of an issue, meaning you do not have to go back to a drawing to visualize an issue's location.

It is best to set up locations at the start of the project, throughout all drawings so that issues and forms can be added to all areas. Once set up, locations will not need to be added unless some have been missed.

You can add the location pin on the website and APP.

If you couldn't see the button or don't have permission to do it, please contact the project admin.

What is the Location reference? External reference?

An External Reference is an extra way to distinguish the locations from each other. You can use the External Reference to link Room Data Sheets to it for example. Also you can use the External Reference if you use 2 names for one location (e.g. location name of architect and another location name of the construction company).
