  • 1.  Create Cubicle Location with Number Location

    Posted Oct 05, 2011 04:04 PM

    We want to create a field for cubicle location that will allow me to enter in a numeric value, e.g. Cube location 20 on the 4th Floor, we may put 420.

    I found the below how to doc's but it does not provide enough detail.

    I would recommend against using locations.  There are performance considerations to doing this because your location list can get into thousands and tens of thousands.  It might be workable if you disable hierarchy for the Locations Organizational View, but if you were planning on using locations for security, this won't be an option for you.

    I would keep Location at a high level (e.g. Region, City, Building, or City, Building, Floor) and create a new resource association to 'Office Location' instead, one which is not enumerated elsewhere or part of a hierarchy.
