If you don't have or want to use BIP-IQ or Enterprise Manager or some other configuration management system you can setup multiple sync groups per device and link them to partitions and folders.

 

This means you can place common configuration like profiles, irules, SSL certificates and keys etc in the folders that will sync between locations. Your location specific configuration like Virtual Servers, Pools, Nodes etc in partitions/folder that will not sync.
