The Hospital flag marks a location in ShipHero as non-pickable when a picker finds an inventory issue, such as a unit count that doesn't match what the system expects. The Item Locations Report lets you find every location currently flagged as Hospital and clear the flag from many locations at once, instead of clearing them one at a time.
Before You Begin
- Required User Role Permissions: The Bins: Edit permission must be enabled in the user's role to clear the Hospital flag from the Item Locations Report.
Locations are flagged as Hospital from the ShipHero Mobile App during picking. For how locations get flagged, and for steps to clear the flag from a single location, see Using the Hospital Location Feature in the Mobile App. For help finding Hospital-flagged rows using other filters, seeOverview: Item Locations Report.

What Happens When You Clear the Hospital Flag in Bulk
Clearing the Hospital flag in the Item Locations Report makes each selected location available for picking again.
- Button availability: Clear Hospital Flag is unavailable when none of the selected rows are flagged as Hospital.
- Confirmation message: ShipHero shows "Hospital flag cleared successfully for [location name]." for each location it clears.
- Locations that can't be cleared: ShipHero shows an error message for those locations and clears the rest.
