Locations are currently being used to populate the location dropdown in the advanced search, and the location display in the availability. We are able to pull location codes and descriptions from Symphony, however, the descriptions are abbreviated or sometimes incorrect (among other issues). The data will need to be curated by and admin.
We would like to have a single place to store locations from Symphony and allow an admin to edit them.
Potential solution:
Create data model called Locations with code, symphony_description, and preferred_description attributes
Create a script to import Symphony codes and descriptions to regularly import this data
Create a basic CRUD interface behind admin authentication that displays the Symphony code and description and allows the user to update the preferred description. We potentially will also want to allow the user to add a location.
Alter availability and advanced search location logic to pull from this data
