About Roaming


Roaming is a key-level setting that allows organizations with multiple SmartBox locations to restrict which location the key can be returned to.

When the Roaming setting is enabled, the key can be dropped off at any SmartBox location within the same organization, even if it was picked up from a different location.

When the Roaming setting is disabled, the key can only be dropped off at its Home Location (ie. where the key was picked up from).

By default, newly created keys have the Roaming setting enabled.
