      How Do I Add New Locations?

      Locations allow you to give your Users information on where your programs, seasons, and more take place.

      2. From the top navigation bar select Programs and then Assets. Once the page has loaded make sure you are on Locations. 
      3. Here, you can see the current list of locations. You can click the Create Location button on the top right to get started with your new location
      4. A pop-up window will open where you can start to set up all relevant information
        1. You will see an Is Sub Location toggle, set this off for now.
        2. Name can be whatever you want to call your location
        3. Abbreviated Name is a 4 letter code you can give your location
        4. Hours of Operation is where you can list the location’s hours, if you desire.
        5. The Rentable toggle will give you the option of making your location available for rentals to the publict
        6. Notes are for backend administrators only, and front-end customers will not be able to see them

      You can also create Sub-Locations that exist within a larger location. For example, you could have Gym A set as a location, then set Court X, Court Y, Court Z as sub-locations within Gym A. Note that you can also create Sub-Locations within Sub-Locations
