Adding Units
Before you can rent units at your location, you must create (add) the units in the DigiGate database. This
procedure can be very simple or more involved depending on what information you have chosen to maintain
in the “Required Fields” section, how your site is numbered, and how your units types are laid out. When you
initially
Add
units to the database you can enter groups or blocks of numbers which share common features.
Later when you need to modify or change information, it must be done on one at a time basis. Because this
can be very time consuming, we suggest you see “Appendix C, Preparation for Adding Units” to aid in
deciding what is the most efficient way to proceed in this section. This procedure must be done for each
site individually! Use the
Site
button on the
Main Menu
to Select sites.
