Abstract
A system and method determines from data collected by one or more data collection elements of a computing device a plurality of discrete product storage locations within a product storage system. Each of the plurality of plurality of discrete product storage locations is caused to be associated with at least one cell of a grid comprised of a plurality of cells. A graphical user interface is displayed in a display of the computing device, the graphical user interface including the grid overlayed upon an image of the product storage system. A user may then interact with the graphical user interface to select a one or more of the plurality of cells of the grid and cause product related information captured via use of the one more data collection elements of the computing device to be linked in a memory storage associated with the computing device to the one of the plurality of discrete product storage locations that was associated with the selected at least one cell of the grid.
