Please describe the problem you'd like to be solved.
Configuring a location to replicate AIPs to in the Storage Service admin is a two step process (assuming you have an existing AIP Storage location):
Create the replicator
Edit the AIP storage location, and assign the replicator you've just created.
Describe the solution you'd like to see implemented.
This could be reduced to a single step by adding a for option for "Source location" to the Create Location form, when the "Replicator" location purpose is selected.
Describe alternatives you've considered.
Leave the admin forms as is.
Additional context
The process of setting up replication is currently a bit confusing and not very discoverable or well documented.
