Qualified Location |
This is the important part. The Qualified Location is a concatenation of all the used fields. The fields are merely and organizational construct for you. WireCAD will use the Qualified Location throughout the application. |

Example
In the following example we will add two locations using different approaches to acheive the same result.
Step |
Result |
|---|---|
Enter the data across all fields. |
|
Enter the data in a single field |
|
As you can see from the above examples the Qualified Location is the same for both. It does not matter which approach you take.
