    Template Name

    Select the template to use for this receptacle.

    Location

    Select the location where the receptacle is defined. The location allows you to specify a receptacle name and configuration to be used in multiple locations. If you select Property, a receptacle is defined for each property based on the values entered. If you select Revenue Center, a receptacle is defined within each revenue center.

    For example, each property has one safe to maintain all cash transactions for the entire property. Create a safe receptacle from the enterprise or zone, and specify property in the Location field. The safe receptacle is defined at all properties under the chosen level. The Location field allows you to define a receptacle type that is commonly used across an enterprise or region without uniquely defining it at each property or revenue center.
