How to Manage Dealer Numbers
Introduction
Dealer Numbers are IDs assigned by a Central Station to the dealer in order to help identify them in the Central Station's system.
Some dealers may even have multiple Dealer Numbers, based on geographic area or office locations. In these cases, the Dealer Number also helps to organize businesses within the dealer themselves.
In SecurityTrax you can create your own custom Dealer Numbers with the following fields:
- Name
- Number
- Active
This page will show you how to manage Dealer Numbers on the admin side. This includes being able to view, create, and edit Dealer Numbers.
