Sometimes you may have a place which includes details like a cemetery, hospital, etc. This allows you to split the current place into separate place and place details for all facts which use that place.

To split the current place highlighted click on the 3 dot menu and select "Split place". On the Split Place screen move the place detail information from the Place field to the Place Detail field. Click OK.
