# Manage location hierarchy

> Edit, move, and delete locations

> [!NOTE]
>
> You need permission to edit locations to change them, and permission to delete locations to remove them.

As your campus changes, you can rename locations, move them under a different parent, or remove them.

## Edit a location

**1. Open the location**

In the sidebar, under **Resources**, click **Locations**.

**2. Click Edit**

In the location's row menu, click **Edit**. You can also open the location and click **Edit** in the actions menu.

**3. Update the details**

Change the name, type, status, address, capacity, booking settings, or images.

**4. Save**

Click **Update Location**.

## Move a location to a new parent

**1. Edit from the list**

On the **Locations** page, open the location's row menu and click **Edit**.

**2. Change the parent**

In **Parent Location**, select the new parent. Select **None** to make it a top-level location.

**3. Save**

Click **Update Location**. Its sub-locations move with it.

A location can't be its own parent. You also can't move a location under one of its own sub-locations.

> [!TIP]
>
> Change the parent from the **Locations** list. The **Parent Location** list is filled in there.

## Delete a location

**1. Click Delete**

In the location's row menu, click **Delete**. You can also open the location and click **Delete** in the actions menu.

**2. Confirm**

In the **Delete Location** dialog, click **Delete**.

To delete several locations, select them on the **Locations** page and click **Delete Selected**.

When you delete a location:

* All of its sub-locations are deleted too.
* Assets at the deleted locations lose their location. The assets stay.
* Work orders at the deleted locations lose their location. The work orders stay.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Deleting a location can't be undone. To keep a location's history but stop using it, set its **Status** to **Inactive** instead.
