You likely already have a system in place at your facility for holding and keeping track of belongings, so all we'll be doing in this step is mirroring this setup in Gingr. You might use numbered cubbies, lockers or leash racks to store belongings now—to input your system into Gingr, follow the steps below.

Notice: If you've been using Gingr since before June 2019, you may already enter belongings using Check In Questions on reservations. We recommend utilizing this belongings feature instead, as it allows much more customization, no character limits, and a handy report!

Before You Begin

All admin users have access to the admin page controlling these settings. Additionally, admin users are able to delegate this particular admin page to other user groups. Non-admin users with access to this page will be able to make edits that affect all locations in the app. For more information see our article on User Groups and Permissions. 

Set Up Belongings Areas

1. Navigate to Left-hand Navigation: Admin » Belongings.
   
   
2. On this page, click the + Add Belonging Area to create an area.
   
   
3. Select the Location and give the area a Name (i.e. Cubby 1). The Status of the area should remain on if this area is currently in use.
   
   
   
4. Repeat these steps for any other areas you use to store belongings.
   

Bulk Create Belongings Areas

If all of your areas have similar names, you can create them in bulk using the Bulk Create Belonging Area section of the form. Indicate how many areas to create, as well as indicate the starting number, and the system will create numbered lodgings in bulk for you.

For example, if I have 10 cubbies, I have indicated that I'd like to create 10 areas with the starting number being 1.
