Add a Case-based Storage Location

When an investigation needs a temporary secure storage unit that's separate from the usual permanent storage location, you can create a case-based storage location.

This type of storage location can only be used for items that belong to the case by users who have been given access to it.

 

To add a case-based storage location:

  1. Find and open the required case.

  2. Select the Overflow tab > Select Storage Locations.

  3. Use the drop-down provided to select the jurisdiction of the temporary storage location.

  4. To restrict access to the storage location:

    1. Select the Restrict Access checkbox.

    2. Specify the designations, teams, or users that should have access.

  5. If you don't want items from the storage location or its sublocations moved to another storage hierarchy (without a person or external custodian involved), select the Disallow movement ... checkbox.

  6. Select Save.
