How to use Locations

Locations is available on the Basic plan and above. In "Locations" in the left menu, enter a location name and select "+ Add location" to add it. The list shows how many staff belong to each location. Because location names can't be typed freely, you avoid inconsistent spellings like "Shibuya Store" and "Shibuya". You can add staff even if you haven't added any locations.

Choosing a location adds a location tag

When you choose a location for a staff member, a tag with the location name is added automatically. This tag is labeled "(auto)" and can't be removed by hand. If you change the location, the old location's tag is removed and the new one is added, so you can build staff lists by location without any manual work.

You can't rename a location

In Locations, you can only add and delete. To change a location's name, add the new name, then delete the old location and choose the new one as the location to move staff to.

What to know before deleting

  • If you delete a staff member with "Delete staff" on the staff detail page, all of that staff member's snaps are deleted too. The photo images and their display on product pages are also deleted, and this can't be undone.
  • When you delete a location that has staff, you choose another location to move them to. The location tag is also switched automatically. If there is no other location to move them to, you can't delete it.
