Overview
Using Locations in the Rhombus console is a great way to break out various areas of one organization, allowing for granular management and access to each designated location.
As an administrator, you have several tools to help you manage each one of those locations.
Note: The Using Floor Plans article details how to use Rhombus' floor plan feature.
