Yes this can be done, however in a different way to which you are currently trying to set this up. First of all which HiveManager platform are you using as the steps would be different? Check this if unsure: https://thehivecommunity.aerohive.com/s/article/Which-HiveManager-Platform-am-I-using

I'm hoping you're on HiveManager (formerly NG) and the select variant as this will be the easiest to set up!:

A prerequisite would be to assign your APs to locations in the maps if not already set.

In the original SSID scroll down to the user access settings:

Tick the "apply a different user profile to various clients and groups"

Create a user profile (perhaps name it '[Location]-UP' for easy reference, create it with the required settings. Then create an assignment rule for the location. This basically means, if the AP is in location x, assign the users of the ssid to user profile x. Then just create a user profile for each location, push it out and you should be good to go!
