Share Your Locations

By default, when you publish a GLN, it is shared with all GS1 US Data Hub Location View/Use subscribers - and with users globally and freely via the Verified by GS1 service.

Note: GLNs from the Managed GLN subscription (healthcare) are shared with View/Use subscribers and GLN Lookup Tool users, but not with Verified by GS1 users.

To change this default setting, click the Administration link, then the Default Share Settings link. Uncheck the box for Share Your Locations (GLNs). Then click the Save Settings button.

Your GLNs are no longer being shared. Your company can now selectively share GLNs with a defined list of trading partners. Follow these steps below.

Note: You need to have the Location Administrator role to perform these steps.

1. From the Managed GLN page, click the Sharing tab.

2. Click the Add New Trading Partner button. The Add Trading Partners window displays. 

3. Query for the trading partner and click Search. When you find the desired trading partner(s), check the box(es) and click the Add Selected to Trading Partners button. After you have added the desired companies, you can share GLNs with this list.

To share location data with the defined list of trading partners:

1. Click the GLN you want to share, then click the Sharing tab.

2. Check the box for Share this location and its children. Then click Save.

This GLN will now be shared with your defined list of trading partners. They will be able to view all GLN data, including phone or email contact data. However, trading partners will not see how the GLN data was created, any “Comments”,  or the names of users who created or modified this data.

Note: For any GLNs you have not shared, a Location View/Use subscriber can request access by sending a message to your Location Administrator.

You can always click Administration and check the box for Share Your Locations (GLNs). All your GLNs will be shared again, unless you visited an individual GLN, clicked the Sharing tab, and checked the box for Hide this location and its children.
