​
Update details and list order

Open Locations, select the site and edit the details. Check Timezone and the address when a site moves. Use Add or Edit below the address to open its city, State / Province, postcode and country. Check the map pin as well, then save your changes. Use Move up or Move down in the row menu to change where the location appears in the list. Use See people to check who is assigned before making a change that affects the team.

​
Check what Private location means

You can switch Private location in the editor, or use Make private and Make public in the row menu. A private location has a lock marker. Today the setting marks the row with a lock and makes the linked channel private. Making a private location public needs the right to manage its channel, because that opens the channel to everyone. It does not hide the site from anyone who can read locations. For the channel side, see Location channels.

​
Delete a site you no longer use

1

Check the site's team and upcoming shifts

Reassign people and change planned shifts where necessary. Deleting the location will not move them to a replacement site. Policies aimed at this site stop applying to its people once the assignments are gone.
2

Choose Delete location

Open the site’s row menu in Locations.
3

Confirm the deletion

The confirmation counts what the delete affects: the people who lose the site, the upcoming shifts that carry it, how many of those are open shifts, how many offers on them can still be accepted, the rotas applied to the site, the policies and roles that name it, and the terminals registered there. The rotas stop, and the future shifts they created are deleted. The location then disappears from the active list and its member assignments are removed.
You cannot restore a deleted location from this page. Existing shifts and time entries keep their saved location reference and still show its name; you cannot choose the site for new shifts. Clock-ins on shifts still set to the deleted site are no longer checked for distance. An open shift at the site that no rota there created keeps its offers and can still be accepted. A terminal that syncs people by the site has nobody to clock in until it gets another site. Any other terminal registered there keeps working, but its clock-ins still record the deleted site; move it to another site in its device settings. The site’s channel is archived, not deleted.
