Planning Lot Groups and Lot Zones

Quick Steps:
  1. Hover over System Configuration then Parking and click on Manage Lot Groups.
  2. Click Add Lot Group. Enter Group Name. Set Free Parking Time and Vehicle Counts Limit then click Save Changes.
  1. Hover over the Parking Management icon :  then hover over Lot Administration and select Pricing & Lot Admin.
  2. Click on the Lot Name. 
  3. In the Edit Lot page click on Zone & Location.

  1. Create a Lot Group:

    • Type the group name (e.g., "RED Group").
    • Select the lots to add to this group.
    • Done! No time-based rules are applied in the group.

  2. Create a Zone:

    • Go to the lot admin tool.
    • Add a zone (e.g., "RED Zone") to the lot.
    • Set the valid days/times for the zone (e.g., Fridays).
    • Done! The lot is now linked to the zone.

  3. Assign Zones to Multiple Lots:

    • You can assign the same zone to multiple lots (e.g., “RED Zone” to both the Red Lot and Green Lot).
    • Specify when each lot’s zone is valid.

  4. Enforcement:

    • Patrols can select either a Lot Group or Lot Zone during enforcement.
    • Zones allow enforcement based on time/dates, and groups allow enforcement across multiple lots.

Visuals for Reference:

  • See the system screenshots for easy understanding of where to add groups and zones to lots.

Key Points:

  • Lot Groups: Group lots for general organization; no time/date rules.
  • Lot Zones: Define specific time/date rules for parking permits.
  • A lot can be in many zones, but only one group.
  • Enforcement can select specific lots, groups, or zones for validation.
