This can then collaborate with the Geo Address of staff member locations, and display the distance between where a staff member lives, and the Location. For more information on this feature, click the link below.
The last section is Hours of Operations. This is where you can define the Open Time / Close Time of the Location. This will directly affect the Schedule page, and successfully scheduling staff members. Also, keep in mind that these hours are based on the Time Zone of the Location being edited.
Once you're satisfied with the configuration of the Location, and you're ready for the changes to go live, click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
