Manage zones

A zone is an area or grouping that projects sit in — for example a city, a district, or a specific site. Zones help you organise projects geographically within a business. This guide shows how to create and manage them.

You already have one. Your starting business comes with a Main zone, so you can create a project without setting up zones first. Add more zones when you want to group projects by area.

How zones relate to businesses

A zone belongs to one business (one that's used for projects), chosen when you create it.
The business is fixed after creation — you can rename a zone or redraw its area, but you

can't move it to a different business.

When you create a project, the zone picker shows only the chosen business's zones.
You reach a business's zones from its detail page: Businesses → the business → Zones.

Create a zone

Open the business from Businesses, then tap Zones and Add.
Enter the zone name (required, 2–100 characters). The owning business is already set —

you arrived from its zone list.

Optional: draw the zone's area on the map (a boundary outline).
Tap Save.

About the drawn area (optional)

You can outline a zone's boundary on the map. It's optional, but if you draw it, Reconstro can gently flag when a project's pinned location falls outside that area when you create the project — a helpful check, never a hard block.

Edit a zone

Open the zone from its business's Zones list.
Tap it to open the form.
Change the name or the drawn area and tap Save. (The business can't be changed.)

Remove a zone

Removing a zone depends on whether a project uses it:

Situation	What you can do
Not used by any project	Delete it.
In use by a project	You can't delete it. Deactivate it instead — it stays on existing projects but won't appear when creating new ones.

Tips

The Main zone is enough to start — you don't need to create zones before your first project.
Pick the business first when creating a project; the zone list follows the business.
Draw a zone's area only if the outside-the-zone reminder is useful to you — it's never required.
