Overview

Alternativa Verde supports a multi-center architecture that allows you to manage multiple collection centers within a single application. Each center maintains its own set of generators, tickets, vehicles, and team members, ensuring complete data isolation between locations.

​
What are Collection Centers?

Collection centers are physical locations where your organization collects recyclable materials. Each center has:
  • Location details: Name, state, city, and address
  • Isolated data: Generators, tickets, vehicles, and team members specific to that center
  • Unique ticket series: Ticket numbers include the center’s state code (e.g., AV-CAR-2024-0001 for Carabobo)

​
Multi-Center Architecture

The application uses an “active center” model:
  • One center is active at any given time (configured in the Dashboard)
  • The active center determines which data is displayed and used for new tickets
  • Users can switch between centers by changing the active center in the Dashboard
  • Each center maintains complete data isolation
The active center can only be changed from the Dashboard view, not from the Configuration page.

​
Creating a Collection Center

From the main navigation, select the Configuration option to access center management.

  • Ciudad (City): The city where the center is located
  • Dirección (Address): The full street address of the center

  2. Click the edit icon (pencil) in the Actions column
  3. The row will become editable with input fields
  4. Make your changes to any of the fields (name, state, city, or address)
  5. Click “Guardar” to save changes or “Cancelar” to discard

​
Deleting Collection Centers

Deleting a collection center will remove all associated data including generators, tickets, team members, and vehicles. This action cannot be undone.
To delete a center:
  1. Click the delete icon (trash) in the Actions column
  2. Confirm the deletion when prompted

​
Center-Specific Data Isolation

Each collection center maintains its own isolated data:
  • Generators: Clients are assigned to specific centers
  • Tickets: All tickets are linked to the center where they were created
  • Vehicles: Each center has its own vehicle fleet
  • Team Members: Staff members are assigned to specific centers
  • Ticket Numbering: Ticket numbers include the center’s state code for unique identification

​
Next Steps

  1. Activate it from the Dashboard
  2. Add team members to the center
  3. Begin registering generators and creating tickets
