# Advanced location inquiry

The Advanced location inquiry can be accessed by creating a mobile device menu item (**Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Mobile device menu items**) with the **Activity code** set to **Advanced location inquiry**.

When accessing the advanced location inquiry on the mobile device, users can scan/manually enter the **Location** in the **Location inquiry** screen.

An initial screen is displayed with the following location information:

- **Warehouse**
- **Location**
- **Storage condition**

When users confirm the information, the on-hand information is displayed in a grid layout. Each box contains the following fields:

- Key identifier: combination of **Batch number** and **License plate** for batch managed items, **Sub batch number** for sub-batch managed items
- **Item number: Item number** that has on-hand in the location
- **Info: Product name** of the item
- **Batch number: Batch number** that has on-hand in the location
- **Sub batch: Sub batch** number that has on-hand in the location (if applicable)
- **Inventory status: Inventory status** of the batch
- **Physical: Physical inventory** available for the batch/sub-batch in the location

Users can view the same information as a list by clicking on one of the boxes and accessing the **Inventory details** screen. It is possible to link this screen with other inquiries by leveraging standard detour functionality (for example, to access the related item, batch, or sub-batch inquiry with a single click).
