Note: If Chateau Mobile recognizes the existing Location Description as being in the required format, you will be able to edit specific items in the Location Description (such as changing 4 FT WEST to 6 FT WEST) just by editing that specific item.
But if the existing Location Description is NOT in the required format, triggering this feature will enable you to start from scratch and build a good Location Description.
