		you must define details such as work locations and <Link href="/baanerp/ts/glossary/glossary#000388" role="glossary">master routing</Link>.</Paragraph>

            <StepTitle>Set up work order control parameters</StepTitle>
            <Paragraph>Before you begin to define or use <Link href="/baanerp/ts/glossary/glossary#000385" role="glossary">work orders</Link>, you must review and set up the related
			 parameters in the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Work Order Parameters (tswcs0100m000)</GUIRef> session. These parameters affect the way in which LN processes work
			 orders .</Paragraph>
         </Step>
         <Step>
            <StepTitle>Define work locations</StepTitle>
            <Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Locations (tswcs0125m000)</GUIRef> session,
			 you can define work locations.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>Work locations are generic locations or locations specific
			 to your service department. You can use locations to store incoming parts and
			 repaired parts until they are shipped back to the customer. You can receive an
			 item either in the warehouse or in the service department location. When you
			 use a warehouse, a receipt warehouse order is created. If you use a location,
			 no warehouse order is created. You can use the item receipt to identify that
			 the item was received in the specific location.</Paragraph>

         <Step>
            <StepTitle>Define reference activities for depot repair</StepTitle>
            <Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Reference Activities (tsacm1101m000)</GUIRef> session, you can define reference activities for work orders. The <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Work Control System</GUIRef> module uses <Link href="/baanerp/ts/glossary/glossary#000405" role="glossary">reference activity</Link> to plan and carry out maintenance on
			 items.</Paragraph>
         </Step>
         <Step>
            <StepTitle>Define master routing</StepTitle>
            <Paragraph>In the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Master Routing (tsacm1101m100)</GUIRef> session, you can define master routings.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>You can define generic master routings and master routings
			 that are specific for a service department or an item. You can link master
			 routing options to a master routing to determine the type of service to be
			 carried out while implementing work orders. You can also link master routing
			 operations to a master routing to define a set of reference activities for the
			 master routing.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>Use the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Master Routing – Operations (tsacm2100m100)</GUIRef> session to define operations for the selected master
			 routing. Use the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Master Routing – Routing Options (tsacm1101m200)</GUIRef> session to define routing options. Next, you can
			 select the defined operations for the routing options in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ts/acm/tsacm2800m000" role="session">Routing Matrix (tsacm2800m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
