# Configure locations

Manage the location records used in Chain of Custody.

The **Select Location** list in **Chain of Custody** uses these location records.

### When to use this page

Use this page when you need to maintain the location records that device custody workflows rely on.

Use it to create one record, update an existing record, or manage locations in bulk.

### Before you start

Confirm that you know:

* whether the change affects one location or many
* whether you need manual entry or file-based import
* which locations should be available in chain of custody workflows

### Open locations

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### 1. Open Locations

Go to **Device Management** → **Locations**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### 2. Review the current records

Review the configured location list before you add, edit, import, or export records.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Available actions

From **Locations**, you can:

* [Add a location](/verifone-central-device-management/verifone-central/asset-tracking/configure-locations/add-a-location.md) — create one location record
* [Edit a location](/verifone-central-device-management/verifone-central/asset-tracking/configure-locations/edit-a-location.md) — update one existing location
* [Import locations](/verifone-central-device-management/verifone-central/asset-tracking/configure-locations/import-locations.md) — merge location records from a file
* [Export locations report](/verifone-central-device-management/verifone-central/asset-tracking/configure-locations/export-locations-report.md) — download the current location list

### Choose the right path

Use these quick rules:

* use **Add a location** when you need one new record
* use **Edit a location** when a current record needs correction
* use **Import locations** when many records need to be added or merged
* use **Export locations report** when you need the current list outside the UI

### Verify the result

After you manage location records, confirm that:

* the location list shows the intended records
* the records are available where chain of custody needs them
* the next import, export, or custody workflow uses the correct locations

### Result

You can keep the location list accurate for chain of custody and related reporting.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.verifone.com/verifone-central-device-management/verifone-central/asset-tracking/configure-locations.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
