You should read about the user access restrictions set in the universe.
Because that is what looks to be your requirement

Your requirement is not very clear …

Are you talking about restricting data, prompts or documents?

So its user access restriction which you are after.
Open the universe and go to Tools-manage security-manage access restrictions
Add a restriction, insert the where clause on the lookup table containing location column.
Apply it to a user or group and login to DeskI/webI with same user and the where clause will be created dynamically

For other possiblities and options read Designer FAQ here
