Techniques for managing product location information are described. Managing product location information may include collecting, storing, generating, and synthesizing information about the location of products or other items in a store, retail location, warehouse, or other location. In one embodiment, a user operates a mobile device {e.g., scanner, smart phone) to efficiently scan item identifiers corresponding to items on the shelves of a store. In some cases, the user need only scan a single item identifier in a section or shelf, which is then used to obtain information about other items in that section, such as based on a planogram or other store inventory information. In some embodiments, shelves, sections, and/or aisles include location identifiers that can be scanned in order to reset, save, and/or initialize a record that stores information about products located at that shelf, section, or aisle.
