3. In the left navigation bar, click Users.

4. Use one of the following methods to locate a user:

   • In the Search users box, type all or the first portion of the display name, first name, last name, Security Accounts Manager (SAM) account name, SIP address, or line Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the user account, and then click Find.

5. (Optional) Specify additional search criteria to narrow the results:

   1. Click Add Filter.

   2. Enter the user property by typing it or by clicking the arrow in the drop-down list to select the property.

   3. In the Equal to drop-down list, click the operator (for example, Equal to or Not equal to).

   4. Depending on the user property you selected, enter the criteria you want to use to filter the search results by typing it or by clicking the arrow in the drop-down list.

   5. Click Find.

6. Click a user in the search results, click Action, and then click Assign policies.

7. In Assign Policies, under Location policy, do one of the following:

   Note:
   Because there are multiple policies that you can configure by using the Assign Policies dialog box, <Keep as is> is selected by default for every policy in the dialog box. Continue using the policy previously assigned to the user by making no changes to this setting.

   • Allow Lync Server 2013 to automatically choose either the global-level policy or, if defined, the subnet-level policy.

   • Click the name of a per-user location policy you previously defined by running the New-CsLocationPolicy cmdlet.

     Tip:
     To help you decide the policy that you want to assign, after you click a policy name, click View to view the user rights and permissions defined in the policy.

8. When you are finished, click OK.

You can assign per-user location policies by using the Grant-CsLocationPolicy cmdlet. You can run this cmdlet either from the Lync Server 2013 Management Shell or from a remote session of Windows PowerShell. For details about using remote Windows PowerShell to connect to Lync Server, see the Lync Server Windows PowerShell blog article "Quick Start: Managing Microsoft Lync Server 2010 Using Remote PowerShell" at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkId=255876.
