On a child's profile page, if the child has never had a removal location recorded, both the card and the jump menu displays as Locations. If a removal location has been recorded for the child the card and the jump menu display as Placements and Locations.

The Locations/Placements and Locations Card on a person profile page displays the most recent Current location which may be a placement, a household, an other location or an imported address. From the locations card you can go to get a quick summary of all locations.
Many addresses in Casebook have been imported from the previous case management system. Because of data mapping concerns, imported addresses do not appear as current addresses on a person profile page.
If you want an imported address to display as a person's current address, you will need to build a household and associate the imported address with that household. To learn more about creating a household, go to the Creating Households page.
On the Locations Card on the Person Profile Page.
The Locations Card will display all open current locations
To view the imported addresses section, click the "See previous location (includes imported addresses)" link located in the bottom left corner of the card.
In the locations card, each location is listed with the name of the household or resource, address, and dates the person was at that address. Only one current location displays for a focus child at any time; all other locations associated with a focus child will be listed under previous locations. This will help you know exactly where a child is all the time. The current location can be a:
Removal Placement (Placement, Trial Home Visit, Temporary Absence)
Other location
Household

The dates associated with a current household, an other location, or a removal episode drive what is listed as current in a person's locations card. Casebook also follows the following rules when deciding which locations to list as current if there are overlapping dates:
The removal location will be listed as current if the person is in a current removal episode.
If there is no current removal location, the person's other location will be listed as current
If there is no other location, the person's primary household will be listed as current
The person's secondary household will never be listed as current.
Instructions for updating, editing or deleting locations can be found on the following pages
