The Location Model View describes where the enterprise does business and can include particular physical facilities as well as types of locations. The "location" represents the physical location where a process or process step takes place. It does not necessarily relate directly to the organizational unit that undertakes the task.

The Business Concept diagram enables you to depict locations within your organization. You can import pictures into these diagrams representing the locations (Draw, Picture, File Copy or File Reference) and then define each picture as a location.

A location can either be Conceptual, Logical, or Physical. A conceptual location specifies geographic location (for example, east coast) ; a logical location provides more specific details (for example, Boston Sales Office), and a physical location will give the exact address.

The Location definition can be associated with various business elements, such as Elementary Business Processes (or Units of Behavior for IDEF) that are performed at the location, and the Technology used at the location. These associations are created within the definition (for example, for associated Technology, you can add Technologies directly into a listof box within the Location definition) or using matrices (View, Matrix Browser, Business Enterprise tab, select Elem Business Proc to Location or View, Matrix Browser, IDEF Matrices tab, select UOB to Location or View, Matrix Browser, Location tab).
