SiteDocs Administrators can use Custom Location Specific Menus to assign Forms and Resources to specific Location profiles, which means the documents will only be viewable if/when a worker is logged into that Location.

These Menus can help Admins to make it easy to find the right documentation in the field without having to scroll through long lists of unnecessary documents.

 

Please Note: Items in the master Form or Resource List cannot be rearranged from the Location Specific Menu.

 

There are two places in your Administrator Panel where you can edit these Location Specific Custom Menus.

From the Resource Library

  1. Select “Edit Locations Menu”.

  2. Select the Location Menu you’d like to edit from the list of active Locations on the left side of the page.
    - Locations with an Existing Specific Menu will be at the top of the list in alphanumeric order and marked with a purple GSP pin.
    - Locations without Locations Specific Items will be lower on the list in alphanumeric order and marked with a black smartphone icon.

  3. When a new Location Specific Item is added to a menu that previously did not contain any, the black phone icon will change to a purple GPS pin, but will not move to the top section until the Menu is saved and the page is refreshed.

  4. Add Location Specific Folders by selecting "Add Folder" at the top of the page. Location Specific Folders will be colored purple and marked with a GPS pin icon.

    5. Add Location-Specific Resources. You can add Resources outside of your Folders with the "Add Resource" button at the top of the page, or add them to Folders by selecting "Add" in the bar next to each Folder. You can even add Location Specific Resources to regular Folders, not just Location Specific ones.

  5. Any changes to a Location’s Menu must be saved before moving to another Location Menu, or changes will be lost. If the user tries to navigate away, a warning message will appear.

Note: You can also hide Folders or Resouces from the Master Resource Menu by selecting the "Hide" icon next to the Resource or Folder you wish to Hide from this Location.
