What is a location in CommTrack?

...

Assuming in your project there are 3 mobile workers and each of them manages the inventory of 2 facilities. The first thing to do is to bulk upload 6 clinics. To do this, you first go to Setup and select Locations. Go click 'Bulk Import Locations', and download the location configuration file.

In this example we updated the default location hierarchy from five to two levels. Accordingly in the excel file there would be two sheets: sheet1 for District information and sheet2 for Clinic information.

Bulk import location tool would have same number of tabs with different location types. Site code is the unique identifier in each tab that differentiate it from one another. It must be assigned to each level of location from top level to the bottom level.

Save the excel file and upload it again on the same screen. Once it is successfully uploaded, select 'Manage Locations' and you should be able to see the three districts and clinics within each district. You need to manually fill in all parent id for all clinics even when there are more than hundreds of them.
