Location Groups are configured in Setup / Usage Rating / Locations / Location Groups

Overview #

Location Groups are used to combine multiple GeoTree locations into a single reusable grouping. This makes it easier to apply the same location-based rating logic across several related locations without configuring each location individually on every rate.

Once a location group has been created, it can be selected in areas that support GeoTree-based rating. This is especially useful when rates should apply across a defined set of countries, regions, or other GeoTree territories.

Prerequisites #

Locations must already exist in the GeoTree before they can be added to a location group.

Location Groups Panel #

The Location Groups panel on the left displays the groups that already exist in the system. Select a group to load its details in the edit panel on the right.

Actions #

IconDescription
Deletes the location group if not in use (configured on rates)
Adds a new location group

Edit Location Group Panel #

The panel on the right displays the selected location group and is where you maintain its configuration.

  • Name: The name of the location group.
  • Description: An optional description that explains the purpose or composition of the group.

Locations Tab #

The Locations tab is used to manage the GeoTree locations that belong to the location group.

Location Filter #

The filter field at the top of the tab lets you narrow the visible list of locations already attached to the group.
