Retail Location template

What this template is

The Retail Location template stores store or branch metadata—store number, address, suite, and manager contact—for multi-location retail and franchise operations, with duplicate hints when store numbers match.

When to use it (and when not to)

Good fits

• Franchise or chain store directory with store numbers
• Branch manager contact for ops handoffs
• Linking merchant accounts and invoices to the correct location mentally

Use something else instead

Everyday workflows

Open a new branch

1. Enable Retail Location under Enable category template packs → Retail & stores.
2. Create one item per branch; use Store number as the primary identifier.
3. Pair with Merchant Account and Commercial Lease items for the same site.

Ops handoff

1. Share manager name and phone via selective disclosure—no secrets required for location metadata.
2. Use Vault tags to group locations by region.

What you need

Steps

Enable the pack

1. Unlock your vault and open Settings → General → Category templates (https://se.nt2.me/settings/general/templates).
2. Under Retail & stores, toggle Retail Location On.

Create a location item

1. Open https://se.nt2.me/assets and select Add asset → Retail location.
2. Enter a title and fill store number and address.
3. Add manager name, phone, and email if known.
4. Save. NT² may show a duplicate hint when store numbers match an existing item.

Update or remove

1. Edit when a branch relocates or changes manager.
2. Archive closed locations; keep historical Invoice / Receipt items separately.

Tips and common mistakes

• One item per branch—reuse store numbers only when they truly identify the same site.
• Lease vs location—rent and landlord belong in Commercial Lease, not here.
• Not an inventory system—NT² stores reference data only; it does not track SKUs or POS sales.
