Region types allow you to specify the kind of regions, for example: administrative region, tourist 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 the postal code range or the cities in one region.

Region Management

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



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 within one region.

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

Region Definitions " .

C: Allows you to specify the region for which the limits will be determined. By pressing the Button Selection 3 dots.png button you can select the region you want. If the wanted region has not previously been created, you can create a new one by clicking on the Button add plus.png button in the region selection window.

D: It is with these boxes that the rule to use can be created. To edit the method of defining the regions (by city, province and country or by postal code and country), see " Region Type Management ".

In the example on the left, all the clients who live in " Victoriaville " will automatically be attributed the " Centre-du-Québec " administrative region.

In the example on the right, all the clients having postal codes between A0A 0A0 and A0A 9A9, will automatically be attributed the " Centre-du-Québec " tourist region.

The Prodon5 Region Management Lightning Button.png button will generate all of the possible codes from the 3 first characters.

E: If the region wanted was not created earlier, you can confirm the addition of the one that you are consulting and create another region right away by clicking on the Button add plus.png button.
