Location

Location is a data object that can be used to create, review, and edit the specific locations where an organization has offices. Where Site is most often used to identify general areas where the organization does business, locations are often the specific addresses that are associated to those more generally identified sites.

Location helps narrow the Site data object to more specific locations, such as when organizations have multiple offices within the same city.

When a site has locations associated to it, the location will appear as a selection that is affected by the site that is selected. Like a site selection, this ensure that workers are assigned to the correct workplace.

If an organization has defined locations, the Location field is populated in documents such as Job Postings after a Site has been chosen.
