The **Locations** workspace enables you to create and manage locations that correspond to the different sites that your organization has, as well as the storage spaces where your assets are in stock. You can set up parent and child locations to create a hierarchy that groups locations geographically.

You need to create your locations and storage spaces here *before* using the Stock Management workspace to manage in-stock assets. For details about managing stock, see [Stock management](docId\:AQIolD783mRZnmfJR0Irm).

Asset Administrators and Asset Manager roles have access to the Locations workspace. Note that **Storage Managers** can add locations and storage spaces directly from the Stock Management workspace, but they don't have the ability to manage those locales from the Locations workspace.

**To create a new location with a storage space**

1. Open the **Locations** workspace and click **New**.
2. Enter a **Name** for the location. ITAM will automatically fill in the **Full Name** field for you at the end of the creation process.
3. In the **Parent Location** field, create a new parent location, or click the :inlineImage[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/parib0MC3hVoUNdfQdnac/fGnHoBwroCpFNUMA4473d_searchicon13x13.png" alt caption size="10" width="13" height="13"} icon and select an existing one from the list.
4. Complete the other fields as needed. If necessary, Asset Administrators can add new countries to the **Country** drop-down via the **Address Country** workspace.
5. Complete the other associated tabs for this location:
   - **Child Location** – Click **New** to create a new child location for this location, or link to an existing one to create a hierarchy. A child location is not to be confused with a storage space.
   - **Subnets** – Associate a subnet with this location. ITAM uses this information to produce a report that identifies when discovered or imported assets aren't in the location you may have manually assigned them to via the Hardware Assets workspace. For details, see [Missing assets](docId\:odY4YVzCXFbBnolYHkhSk).
   - **Discovered Assets** – Assets that data discovery has discovered at this location. Click **Go to** to open the asset record.
   - **Storage Spaces** – Create a new storage space for this location. Any storage spaces added here are also listed in the **Stock Management** workspace.
   - **Storage Space Assets** – Assets that are currently checked in to a storage space at this location. You can check in assets via the **Stock Management** workspace.
   - **Asset Request Fulfillment Centers** – Link to a storage space that has been designated as an asset-request fulfillment center for this location.
   - **Fulfillment Assets** – Assets that are currently available from the asset-request fulfillment centers.
   - **Audit History** – Automatically tracks changes made to key attributes of this record.
6. Click **Save**.
