How about a boost function, "bf" or "boost"?
bf=if(exists(query(location:A)),5,if(exists(query(location:B)),3,0))
Use bf if you want to add to the score, boost if you want to multiply the
score

Subject: edismax bq, ignore tf/idf?
Hi-
I am trying to add a setting that will boost results based on
existence in different buckets. Using edismax, I added the bq
parameter:
location:A^5 location:B^3
I want this to put everything in location A above everything in
location B. This mostly works, BUT depending on the number of matches
for each location, location:B can get a higher final score.
Is there a way to ignore tf/idf when boosting this location?
location from a field type:
class="solr.StrField" omitNorms="true"
Thanks for any pointers!
