		</AimSection>
		<GeneralSection><Paragraph>Mask consists of one or more concatenated mask template segments. For each segment, you must select one of the following types:</Paragraph>
			<List><ListItem>Fixed</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Generated</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Reference Variable</ListItem>
				<ListItem>System Variable</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>Specify the segment values as follows:</Paragraph>
			<List><ListItem>For a fixed segment, you must type a value, for example, DOC-.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>For a generated segment, you must type a value that contains generated characters, such as a pound sign (#) that represents a digit, and an asterisk (*) that represents a letter.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>For a reference variable segment, click the browse arrow to select the required variable from the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Table Fields (ttadv4529m000)</GUIRef> session.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>For a system variable segment, click the browse arrow to select the required variable from the <Link href="/baanerp/dm/com/dmcom0125m000" role="session">System Parameters (dmcom0125m000)</Link> session.</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>To implement a major and a minor revision mechanism for a revision field, you must specify at least two generated segments in the mask. This enables you to select the mask segment to be incremented.</Paragraph>
			<ExampleSection><SectionTitle>Example</SectionTitle>
				<List><ListIntro>If a mask is defined with a fixed segment REV- and generated segments (##) and (-*), the following results are generated:</ListIntro>
					<ListItem>The initial value is REV-00-A</ListItem>
					<ListItem>The next major revision is REV-01-A</ListItem>
					<ListItem>The next minor revision is REV-01-B</ListItem>
				</List>

				<Paragraph>The field configuration for a mask configuration depends on the value of another field. The other field that is labeled with this field name appears above the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Mask Template Segments</GUIRef> list. You must specify the field value to which this mask configuration applies.</Paragraph>
