Overview

Asset locations record where an important object is during this scene. Use them when location matters even if custody does not.

This is useful for hidden evidence, parked vehicles, locked rooms, documents left on a desk or objects that can be found later.

Movement And Last Known Location

When you update an asset's current location, this scene becomes evidence for where the object should be after this point. That helps future continuity checks catch objects that appear somewhere else without a recorded move.

If the scene only mentions an old location, do not update current location. Use the description to explain the reference instead.
