Adding Roles for the Location

The role for the location describes its role in the delivery process. For example, a location might be a warehouse where frozen food is picked up, or it might be the address where deliveries are accepted for a given chain store. A location might have multiple roles. For example, a single location might be both a place where you make deliveries and a place where you send invoices.
