# Hide vendor batch information

Life Sciences Warehouse Management allows hiding the **Country of origin** fields as part of the vendor batch registration via mobile device.

This functionality is available for menu items with one of the following work creation processes:

- Purchase order item receiving
- Purchase order line receiving
- Purchase order item receiving and put away
- Purchase order line receiving and put away
- Load item receiving
- Load item receiving and put away

It is possible to hide the **Country of origin** fields upon purchase order receipt via mobile device by clicking the **Vendor batch** button in the related **Mobile device menu items** form (**Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Mobile device menu items**) and setting the **Hide country of origin** parameter to **Yes**.

If the parameter is enabled, users will not be required to enter the **Country of origin** as part of the vendor batch registration. The field will be automatically left blank in the system, and the warning related to the empty country of origin will not be displayed. Warnings related to other empty fields and additional validations on mandatory fields are still displayed.
