Lot Groups
Lot Groups allow you to group similar lots together to be seen as a single entity in OPS-COM. A lot may only belong to one group and membership in a group is not required.
Quick Steps:
- Hover over System Configuration then Parking and click on Manage Lot Groups.
- Click Add Lot Group. Enter Group Name. Set Free Parking Time and Vehicle Counts Limit then click Save Changes.
- To edit, select the group click Edit and modify the name or settings then click Save Changes.
- To delete, click Delete next to the group.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Accessing Manage Lot Groups: Hover over System Configuration then Parking.
- From the dropdown, select Manage Lot Groups.
- Creating a New Lot Group: On the Manage Lot Groups page, click the Add Lot Group button. A popup will appear.
- Enter a Group Name: Enter your desired Group Name in the text box.
- Set a Free Parking Time Limit: Optionally, set a Free Parking Time Limit (this is used for lots with pay-by-plate meters to allow users time to register their plate).
- Vehicle count limit: Set the Vehicle Counts Limit.
- Save Changes: Click Save Changes to save the new lot group. The newly created lot group will now appear in the list.
- Editing a Lot Group: Click the Edit button on the lot you wish to modify. A popup will appear where you can edit the group name or adjust the free parking time.
- Save Changes: Click Save Changes to save your edits.
- Deleting a Lot Group: To delete a lot group, click the Delete button next to the group you wish to remove.
Note: Deleting or archiving a group is permanent. The group will no longer appear in your list, but its data remains stored in the OPS-COM system (connected to permits and parking lot data).
