Big things are happening in Operations Center! From a brand-new way to view your tasks and projects, to the new feature that lets you link resources together and track locations on cards — continue reading to learn more!

## **List view**

The **List view** in Operations Center is your go-to place to see and manage all your cards in a streamlined and filterable format. Whether you’re keeping track of your assigned cards or checking on overdue tasks and projects, the List view helps you stay organized.

Operations Center provides several predefined views to help you get started quickly:

| View Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **All active cards** | All active cards, across the board. |
| **Assigned to me** | Cards that are currently assigned to you. |
| **Created by me** | Cards you have created. |
| **Cards overdue** | Cards with past due dates. |
| **Cards to do** | Cards that are yet to be started or scheduled. |
| **Cards in progress** | Cards that are currently being worked on. |
| **Unassigned cards** | Cards that haven’t been assigned to anyone yet. |
| **All cards** | Full list, including archived and removed cards (does *not* filter by status). |

## **Resource linking**

Resource linking transforms operations from a scattered set of assets into a connected, intelligent system. It’s a smarter way to track dependencies — clearly showing **who is using what, where everything is located**, and **how resources interact**.

Imagine being able to instantly answer:

-   Which equipment is assigned to which officer?
-   Who to contact at a specific site when an alarm goes off?
-   Where each piece of equipment is installed, assigned, or stored?

With resource linking, you gain **complete visibility** into your operational landscape — allowing every piece to fall into place effortlessly.

#### **Creating a link between resources**

To create a link between two resources, open the resource details view. You’ll find a section for **Linked resources**. From there:

1.  In the linked resources tab, click one of the available options: +person, +equipment, or +place.
2.  Choose a predefined relation type. Each resource category will offer a set of predefined relationship types tailored for that category.
3.  Select the resource you want to link.
4.  Finalize by clicking "**Add link**".

💡 Only one link of a given type can exist between two resource entities. If a link already exists, it must be removed before creating a new one of the type.

  
 

## **Location tracking on cards**

This feature ensures traceability and accountability by collecting location data with each entry. You can choose to enforce it or disable it entirely to meet both organizational and local compliance requirements.

  
 

**When is your location collected?**

Your location will be collected **only** if your system admin enables it. There are three modes:

| Mode | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Required** | You must allow location access to make changes. If disabled, access to this system will be restricted. |
| **Optional** | You can allow or block location tracking. |
| **Off** | Location data is not collected or stored. |

**What happens if location tracking is blocked?**

If Location Is Required:

-   You’ll see a message blocking you from using the app
-   You may be redirected to device settings to enable location

If Location Is Optional:

-   Your audit trail will still log whether GPS was allowed or denied
-   Example: “GPS permission denied”

If GPS Can’t Be Retrieved:

-   Your change will still go through (if allowed)
-   Audit will show: “GPS could not be fetched”

**Where is the location data shown?**

You can view GPS history:

-   In reports
-   In the **Audit trail** of a card

-   After allowing, reload the page.

**2\. Updating a card in a system with optional GPS tracking:**

-   A prompt will appear to allow or deny location access.

**If location access has previously been blocked:**

1.  Open **Firefox Settings**.
2.  Go to **🔒 Privacy & Security**.
3.  Scroll to the **Permissions** section.
4.  Find **Location** and click **Settings...**
5.  Locate **Operations Center** in the list.
