Who this is for
Owners, managers, and staff who work across multiple locations in one organization.
Required access: membership in the selected organization and access to its locations.
Before you begin
- Select the correct organization first.
- Confirm that at least two active locations are available to the account.
- Finish or cancel any unsaved form before switching.
Steps
- In the application sidebar, open the control labeled Location.
- Under Locations, select the destination location. The check mark shows the current selection.
- Wait for the current page's location-scoped data to refresh.
- Confirm that the location control shows the destination while the organization name remains unchanged.
- Before editing anything, confirm that the visible records belong to the selected location.
Expected outcome
Location-scoped pages refresh for the selected location while the active organization remains unchanged.

Recovery
- If the selector is hidden, the account has only one available location and cannot perform this workflow.
- If the destination is missing, ask an owner or manager to confirm that the location is active and available to your staff account.
- If the selector changes but the page retains records from the prior location, stop work, switch back, and contact PositiveForm support urgently.
