Segment Notes:

This segment is used to identify locations relevant to the parties identified in the NAD segment.
If the message is being used to request any other handling function than movement, then only the location of the goods needs to be specified.
If the message is used for warehouse movement purposes then the identification of the location of goods (where they currently are) and the movement to location is mandatory.

Example:
LOC+14+5412345678908::9'
LOC+22E+5412345000013::9'
The goods are currently located at the location identified by the Global Location Number GLN 5412345678908 and are to be moved to the location identified by the location number 5412345000013. Both locations identified here are under the jurisdiction of the logistic service provider identified in the NAD segment using the DGC party qualifier.
