Incident Management System (IMS) Administrators: Places are used differently in the LMS than the IMS.  Please refer to the Places: Create, Edit and Delete Incident Management System article for additional details on how places are used in the IMS.

The Express LMS is a basic feature LMS and does not include all the features of a full service LMS. The Express LMS does not include the ability to create places.

 

INTRODUCTION

Learning Management System: A place is a physical area, such as a room, work area or meeting spot where training occurs. The LMS includes fields in various screens that allow you to select the place where training occurred.

Incident Management System: A place is the general location where the incident occurred.
