Overview
Location properties in Mobaro let you manage your operations dynamically by tailoring Checklists and tasks to specific locations. With properties, you can ensure that only relevant questions or elements appear for locations based on their assigned attributes.
For example, if a Checklist is used across multiple locations, only locations with the Coaster property might see track inspection-related questions, while others won't.
