# Configuring Locations

## Overview

The **Locations** Folder stores various information about companies and divisions within an organization, as well as their users. Users can store address information of the company or division and its Business Days and Business hours. These Locations will be used as components for creating Flows, Forms, Rules, and Reports. Locations are Project specific.
