CAUTION : This document is for VERSION 5 of Prodon. To go to the document for version 4, click here.


WARNING : This document is currently being edited/revised, it is possible that some parts are missing or obsolete.


Introduction

In the software, there are three notions related to regions : " Region Types ", " Regions " and " Region Definitions ".

" Region Types " allow you to specify the kind of regions, for example: administrative region, touristic region, etc. The " Regions " allow you to build the regions list and to specify their types, for example: Niagara, Durham, etc. The " Region Definitions " allow you to set up the postal code range or the cities on one region.

These functions are all accessible in the " Clients " menu of the software's home page.

A: Allows you to indicate the type of region to be defined. The type also determines the method to use in E, whether the limits are determined in accordance with a city or with postal codes.

B: The country determines the " regions " available in C. It is impossible to modify it after  a region.

C: Allows you to specify the region for which the limits will be determined. By entering the reference number, the desired region will appear.

D: If the wanted region has not previously been created, you can create a new one by clicking on the Button add plus.png button.
