The Location field for a discovered CI is populated by the Location field of the Discovery Schedule that triggered the discovery of that CI. This is done by the DiscoverySensor script, which gets the location ID from the Discovery Schedule and passes it to the Shazzam probe, which then updates the cidata with the location information. The Location field for a parent CI Type, a Port Probe, or a Discovery Dashboard report does not affect the Location field for a discovered CI.
