Permissions: Select the Available to all users (Public) check box to allow all users to see and edit the marker category. If selected, the check box permissions shown on the User Permissions and Role Permissions tabs are disabled and set to their highest permission states, as all users and roles are given access to this category by default. Clear this check box to assign individual permissions to the category by subuser or role membership, or both.

Contains depot markers: Select this check box to indicate that this category contains markers that can be treated as depots (that is, as alternative "HQ" category markers). If this option is selected any of the markers in this category can be chosen as base markers for vehicles and drivers, and can be used as the start or end locations for routes; for example, when creating routes in Verizon Connect® Dispatch™. Markers in this category are shown ahead of "HQ" marker categories when choosing a vehicle or driver base location. If no marker categories are configured with this check box, only "HQ" category markers are available as base markers for vehicles, drivers, and as start and end locations for routes. |
