Adding tank groups to monitors

Operations Portal: Configuring Tank Groups

Generac has just added a new feature for users of the Supplier Operations Portal to configure tank groups as clusters of monitoring devices. This is commonly used in situations where you have multiple branches, zones, or subsets of customers that you’d like to link together and filter on.
