Office Locations
The Locations view lets you find colleagues by their physical office or work location. This is particularly useful in multi-office organisations when you want to know who else is based at a particular site. Click the Locations tab at the top of the web part to switch to this view.
Location cards
The locations view shows all offices/sites as cards. Each card displays:
- Office name
- City or country (if configured)
- Number of people based there
- Photo thumbnails of some members
Cards are sorted alphabetically, or by member count if your administrator has configured that preference.
Browsing a location
Click any location card to see all colleagues assigned to that office. From the location detail view you can:
- Search for a person within that office
- Select people for bulk actions
- Open any person’s profile panel
- Navigate back to the full locations list
How locations are determined
A person’s location comes from their Office attribute in Microsoft Entra ID (the officeLocation Graph property). If your administrator has configured a custom Locations SharePoint list, location names may be enriched with additional details like address, map links, or a location photo.
Tips
- If an employee does not appear under any location, their Office field in Entra ID is likely empty.
- For remote or home-based workers, you may want to create a “Remote” location entry in Entra ID.
- Location data refreshes live from Graph — no manual sync needed.
