# Sub batch split via mobile device

Life Sciences Warehouse Management allows splitting an already existing sub-batch via mobile device by creating a new sub-batch number to guarantee the sub-batch integrity.

To use this feature, create a mobile device menu item (**Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Mobile device menu items**), in the **Activity code** field, select **Split sub batch**, and assign it to mobile device menus (**Warehouse management > Setup > Mobile device > Mobile device menu**). Authorized users can access the menu item in the Warehouse Management app and split a sub-batch, which triggers the generation of an inventory transfer journal to facilitate the transfer of quantity from the original sub-batch to the new one.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> The journal name to be used for the inventory transfer must be defined in the **Split sub batch** field of the **Inventory and Warehouse management parameters** form, **Journals** tab.

In addition, the user can print an [inventory label](/life-sciences/docs/labels-management) for the new sub-batch if the **Print label** option is enabled in the **Mobile device menu item**.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> The label layout is based on the existing setup of the warehouse’s [document routing layout](/life-sciences/docs/label-print-setup) if the **Work order type** is **Purchase order**.
