QR code to data entry excludes Location field

If I scan the QR code for creating a new work request, it displays a data entry screen on my iPhone. Unfortunately, the data entry screen does not include a drop-down list for Location. Can this screen be updated to include data entry for Location?

Asset hierarchy depth

Hello all,I am new to Maintain x and I am in the process of setting my company up on the software.  Im looking to set up the system in such a way that I am able to track everything as efficiently as possible.  I want to set up PM for motors that we have here where Technicians take the amperage reading of 3 phase motors and put the readings in to the software.  I want to use meters to be able to record and track trends for each phase. Are any of you all doing this?
