Configure locations
Create, edit, import, and export the location records used in chain of custody.
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
Search the current list before creating a location. This prevents duplicate values in custody selection lists.
Open locations
Available actions
From Locations, you can:
Add a location — create one location record
Edit a location — update one existing location
Import locations — merge location records from a file
Export locations report — 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
Protect active custody workflows
Edit a location when its existing record needs correction.
Create a new location when the change represents a different physical place.
Export the current list before a bulk import. Use it to compare the result after processing.
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
active custody records still reference the intended location
Result
You can keep the location list accurate for chain of custody and related reporting.
