Track It Locations Setup

The Track It function is available when the General>Track It application function is set to Y.

Select Configuration>Setup>Track It>Locations to set up the locations that may be associated with Track It ticket records.

Track It locations identify the places where Parcel, Baggage and Lost items or Valet- managed vehicles are being held. For example, Parcel, Baggage, or Lost locations might include Storage Room, Front Desk, Building A, Conference Services Office, Purser, etc. Valet locations might be North Lot, Lower Level Row 3, Car Wash, or Porte Cochère.  A location may be associated with multiple Track It groups.

You may configure an unlimited number of locations for each Track It group (i.e., Parcel, Baggage, Lost and Valet).
