	<HelpTopic><AimSection><Paragraph>Use this session to specifies the order in which the <Link href="/baanerp/tf/glossary/glossary#000137" role="glossary">location</Link> segments appear. It is the common format shared by all locations in SSA ERP. It contains the location segments that represent different categories of location information for an asset. For example, if your organization has many divisions at different sites, you may want to set up <Link href="/baanerp/tf/glossary/glossary#000144" role="glossary">segment</Link> for division, project, site, floor, and city, in that order.</Paragraph>
		</AimSection>
		<GeneralSection><Paragraph>The location format indicates the order and type of location data that must be entered for each asset. You can change the order of segments in the location format or add new segments. However, once you add a segment to a location format, it cannot be deleted because it becomes part of the account. The location format can contain up to 8 segments. SSA ERP will automatically update the location in assets already entered in assets already entered in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/fam" role="module">Fixed Assets Management</GUIRef> module.</Paragraph>

				<Paragraph>No one must use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/fam" role="module">Fixed Assets Management</GUIRef> module while you are modifying the format.</Paragraph>
