In FeedComp, each ingredient is associated with a location so you can track where inventory is stored and manage it accurately. From the Locations area, you can create and maintain locations, view which ingredients are stored at each location, and move ingredients as inventory changes. This article explains how to manage locations in FeedComp on both web and mobile. :::::::::Tabs ::::::::Tab{title="Web"} You can manage FeedComp locations on the **Settings** page. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/3h8pSJcGUXEi4HGCCYPTA/D64aultC2knKW-7xIG2MG_fcp-settings-locations.png" size="82" isUploading="false" initialPath="../../../../Resources/Images/Platform/feedcomp-img/web/fcp-settings-locations.png" githubPath="Content/Resources/Images/Platform/feedcomp-img/web/fcp-settings-locations.png" position="flex-start" width="1797" height="662" darkWidth="1797" darkHeight="662" showCaption="false"} Expand the sections below to learn more: :::::::WorkflowBlock ::::WorkflowBlockItem :::ExpandableHeading{customAnchorSlug="search"} ## Search and Filter the Locations List Options to search and filter the locations list are available at the top of the page.
