A Location ID is a number which identifies an address in Compass.

You must add or create a Location ID on a number of screens within Compass such as:

  • Contract Setup and Completion
  • Clinician Creation and Authorisation
  • Provider and User Update

You can search for or create a Location ID on screens where there's a green plus next to the 'Location' box.

When this is selected, you'll be prompted to enter a postcode.

Select 'Continue' to return any search results for existing Location ID's registered to the postcode you entered.

'Select' next to the correct address from the list which has appeared to select an existing Location ID.

If no results have returned for the address you need, tick the box at the bottom of this window titled 'The Address is Not Listed'.

Once this box has been ticked, you'll be able to select 'Manually Enter Address' and a new window will display where you can enter the address for the new Location ID.

Select 'Save' to complete the process and the new Location ID will now show in the 'Location' box.
