Building up a device tree is a good way to organise devices so they are easy to find. You can set the locations to one level or multi level as you need. Then you can add the devices and you also have a search function to find the devices.
The device tree structure allows you to filter by locations (production line, building etc), which can help better plan maintenance activities, as you can see all activities for a location, to avoid additional downtime by looking at all tasks for an upcoming time period.
Adding Locations & Devices
Using right click brings up the add option on the level you want to add, in this case on the top level:
Or where there are multiple levels and then a device added:
You can also use the Departments function to allow or restrict who can see what in the structure, if for example you wanted only 'Department 1' to see level 3 devices.
NOTE: To link a user to a department (in this case Department 1) so they can ONLY see the structure below this, you need to go to Settings > Users. Then select the USER so you see their data, and from there you need to select the Department Tab and select the department(s) as needed.
USEFUL TIP: If you have several similar production lines you can copy a device and paste it to the same location or a new location. You should ensure you setup one device completely ie include all documentation, spares, etc so you replicate all this common data saving time. Its as simple as right clicking on a device, then copy and paste:
