Site records are maintained in Site Management .
DeleteSite Area (LKLocker_SiteArea)
You will not visit this field.
This field displays the Site Area for the Site linked to this item. The Site Area on the item is updated automatically when a Site Code is linked to an item or if the Site Code is changed.
Site Areas are maintained in System Code Management. Type = Site Area. They are linked to Sites in Site Management .DeleteLocker Room (LKLocker_LockerRoom)
You will not visit this field.
This field displays the Locker Room to which this locker is linked.
DeleteLocker Code (LKLocker_LockerCode)
Enter your Locker Code in this field. Codes may be alpha and/or numeric. This is a mandatory field for the default Vermont Systems design. Your design and setup may vary.
If you are updating an existing locker you will not visit this field.
DeleteStatus (LKLocker_RecordStatus)
Select the status of your Locker. This is a mandatory field for the default Vermont Systems design. Your design and setup may vary.
- Active
- Inactive
- Default - See below for a description
- Deleted - See below for a description
Default Status
"Default" status allows you to create exact-copy records upon clicking the Add button from the File Management DataGrid for this module and selecting one of existing Default Options (provided at least one exists). This creates an exact copy of the "Default" record with exception that the copy's Record Status is Active instead of Default. This allows you to save substantial time when adding new records to your database since all settings on all panels (Core Settings Additional Settings etc.) and tabs (Core Fees* Rules* Questions Comments etc.) will be copied from the default record.
"Default" status records to do not show up in Daily Processing DataGrids. You cannot register for reserve or purchase a "default" record. They exist for the purpose of being copied only. If at any time you change the status of a default record to "Active" or "Inactive it will become a regular record" in your database and thus appear in Daily Processing DataGrids.
Options for adding default records are maintained on the Permissions profile Default Record Permissions Group.
* Separate default records for fees and rules can be created as well in their respective File Management program. Permissions must be set to add a Default Record and once added the default record can be linked as needed to any module.
DeleteKeyword Search (LKLocker_KeywordSearch)
Enter any keywords you want to link to this locker. Patrons using WebTrac can search for lockers using keywords.
Keywords may be space-delimited (i.e. Locker Lockers Room Lockerroom) or delimited with a comma and a space (i.e. Locker, Lockers, Room, Lockerroom).
DeletePermissions (LKLocker_Permissions)
Select the Permissions code(s) you want to apply to this locker.
Permissions allow you to control which users can view, add, modify, and/or delete records on browsers and picklists, etc. These are called Access Rights and they are maintained on the Table Permissions tab of the Permissions profile
Note: You can leave this field blank if desired. When this field is blank the system skips the Permissions check for this record. In that event all users will have access to this record provided their Access Rights for the module allow for it.
Lock Number (LKLocker_LockCode)
Select the lock number you want to associate with this locker. Lock numbers are established in Lock Management . If locks exist you may choose from the picklist or you may create a new lock "on the fly."
This field typically applies to lockers with built-in locks or to a hanging lock that is permanently assigned to the same locker.
If you have hanging locks that are randomly assigned to a locker with each new rental your better option is to not link one here but rather to link the lock to the locker during the locker rental reservations process.
Note: If you change locks with each new rental Vermont Systems suggests enabling the Remove Lock on Return/Transfer/Cancel option in Locker Room Update.
Condition (LKLocker_Condition)
Select this locker's current condition:
- Good - If this locker is in good condition.
- Damaged - If this locker is damaged.
- Totaled - If this locker has been totaled and is un-rentable.
You may update the locker's condition during the locker rental process, if desired.
DeleteType (LKLocker_TypeCode)
Select the Type Code for this locker, if desired.
Every module contains fields for Types, Subtypes, and Categories. These should be used to group like items together on the DataGrid and reports. Fees, rules, and questions can be linked at the type, subtype, and category level in all RecTrac modules. Type, subtype, and categories are also reportable fields and are maintained in System Code Maintenance.
Note: SubType codes are maintained within the Type code to which they belong.
For example your Activity Type is "Yoga" and within the Yoga Type System Code on the SubType Tab you have SubType Codes for "Acro Yoga Bikram Yoga Hatha Yoga Hot Yoga and Power Yoga."
To add SubTypes using the example above you would:
- Go to System Code Management.
- Find your Yoga Activity Type System Code.
- Click Change.
- Click the SubType
- Click Add and enter the first SubType Code such as "Acro Yoga" and click Save.
- Repeat Step 5 for all additional SubType Codes.
The steps above use the Activity Module as an example only. The process works the same way regardless of the RecTrac module so if you were working with pass codes then in Step 2 above you would select the System Code you created for your pass type; if you were working with Facilities then in Step 2 you would select the System Code you created for your facility type etc.
Subtype (LKLocker_SubType)
Select the Subtype Code for this locker, if desired.
Every module contains fields for Types, Subtypes, and Categories. These should be used to group like items together on the DataGrid and reports.

Report Tag (LKLocker_ReportTag)
Select the Report Tag you want to use for this locker, if desired.
Report Tags offer a method of categorizing like items within a module for internal reporting purposes in the event you are using Types, SubTypes, and Categories as means for your patrons to perform WebTrac searches and you require different criteria for your reports.
For example, within your department, you have a number of facility types (ball field, pavilion, court, etc.), subtypes (football, softball, soccer), and categories (indoor, outdoor). Patrons search for facilities using these criteria. You also have a number of maintenance districts throughout your city and your facilities are spread across these districts. Reporting by maintenance district is a likely necessity, but the particular categorization ('Maint Dist')is not a useful search tool for patrons looking for a certain facility type. Using 'Maint Dist' as a Report Tag would allow your staff to run reports by maintenance district without compromising WebTrac search capabilities for your patrons.
Report Tags are maintained in System Code Maintenance Code Type = Report Tag.
Note: You can link up to three (3) Report Tags per item. Custom Screen Design is needed. Report Tag 2 and Report Tag 3 must be changed from "Hidden" to "Updateable."
Brochure Code (LKLOCKER_BrochureCode)
Select the Brochure Code, if any, that you want to link to this locker. This comment will print on the Brochure Generator report or on any custom brochure you may have purchased. Additionally, it will display on any WebTrac detail searches as well.
Brochure Codes are maintained in Comment Code Maintenance. Code Type = Locker Brochure.
DeleteBrochure Text (LKLOCKER_BrochureText)
Enter any additional comments that are specific to this locker that you want to print on the brochure or in WebTrac detail searches, if any.

Free form comments may consist of up to 30,000 characters. The right-hand side of the field contains a character counter.
DeleteFeatures (LKLocker_Features)
Select the Features Code(s), if any, that you wish to link to this locker. Feature Codes are searchable and provide a means to tell patrons what the locker might contain. For example, you might have the Locker Features HALF and FULL to indicate locker size. You would link the locker feature HALF to all your half size lockers and FULL to all full size lockers. When searching for lockers, patrons could opt to search for a locker by its Feature Code.
System Codes are maintained in System Code Maintenance. Code Type =Locker Feature.
