When to use lockers vs storage units
In Calven, lockers are smaller units of storage that are grouped into locker banks and should each be assigned to an individual user. Storage units are larger units of storage that should be assigned to one or more groups, but cannot be assigned to specific people.
To create and edit lockers and storage units, you must be a global administrator or locker administrator. With these administrator roles, you can set up locker banks and storage units by going to the storage section in the Calven web app.
