Manage Locations

The 'Location Tree' module enables the creation of a detailed, nested hierarchical list of all regions, areas, and spots within the construction project. This allows you to break down the structure into granular, manageable segments, forming an organized tree structure. Team members can then reference these precise locations in various project documents such as RFIs, Submittals, Change Orders, and Punch List items. This ensures clarity and accuracy, as each item can be directly linked to the specific spot within the structure to which it pertains.

• The project manager or the authorized person can create and upload the list of locations to the project.
• Optionally, each entry can be marked on the relevant plan sheet and attached for quick reference.
• Once done these entries are available for selection in the location field while creating RFI, Submittal, etc. 
• You can update the locations for a project at anytime to add new entries

Linarc also supports the generating of a QR code for each location. These codes can be printed as physical sheets and stuck to the respective locations on the site. Users can scan these QR codes to auto-fill in the location field when creating an RFI, Punchlist item, etc, reducing the manual work of specifying the location and making the entry error-free.
