Location Groups

Here is the overview on the steps to accomplish running reports for only certain locations:

1. Go to Maintenance > Location Maintenance
   
   

2. For each location that you want included on the report, go into that location’s properties
   and type in the name of a location group you would like to use (i.e. AGM). To clarify, there
   is no other setup to complete to establish a location group other than just typing in the
   desired name of the group under each of the location codes you wish to assign to the group.
   
   About Location Groups: Location Group A,B,C,D,E - Each location can be associated
   with up to five location groups. Each location group is alpha-numeric, up to five
   characters. These groups allow reporting by locations not sequentially numbered.
   This is especially useful when reporting by enterprise, such as feed, fuel, agronomy,
   etc. For example; each feed location can be assigned to a location group. Reports
   can then be based on the location group rather than a range of locations.

3. Adjust/run the report(s) in AGRIS that should use the newly created location group.
   Keep an eye out for a button titled ‘Locations’ which is generally found at the bottom of the
   2nd screen of most reports.
   
   

4. Change the beginning and ending location group parameters as desired. In the example
   depicted here, only a single location group is being designated. That particular location
   group contains locations 100 and 900. By setting the location group as shown here, the
   other locations in the dataset (200, 300, 400, etc.) are excluded when the report is run.
