Unit types

Categories such as Engine, Ladder or Ambulance.

Why it helps
Group comparable resources without assuming staffing or qualification.

How to configure it
Create unit types before adding units so each unit can be classified.

Before you begin
Check your department access and intended audience.

Examples for your department

Search and rescue: Unit types: Model bases and field teams as groups and search vehicles or boats as units; define team leader and operator positions.
Security companies and departments: Unit types: Model clients or sites as groups and patrol vehicles as units; check membership before applying site-scoped dispatch.
Wildland contractors: Unit types: Model bases and crews as groups and engines or support vehicles as units; require the appropriate driver or crew positions.
