A custom location identifying scanner device that is ergonomically designed to be carried around, is easy to use, and is relatively cheap so that they may be utilized on a wider scale (e.g., a majority of automobile auction facility employees). The device may be used to scan bar codes associated with automobiles and record the GPS coordinates, scanner ID, and time of scan along with the automobile information. The device may also be used to scan bar codes associated with functions, such as employees, shops or staging operations, specific tasks, and work orders. Bar codes associated with functions may have a pre-fix to differentiate them from regular automobile ID scans. The function bar codes may be scanned to, for example, assign scanners to employees, record tasks being performed, record employee performing the tasks, and record shop or staging operations opened/completed.
