		  and segment default for each <Link href="/baanerp/tf/glossary/glossary#000137" role="glossary">location</Link> segment. Each
		  location segment has valid values, which you define, called segment codes. A

      <GeneralSection>
         <Paragraph>Each location segment contains valid values called segment
		  codes. When you enter assets in LN, you select a segment code for each segment
		  in the location format. For example, for the location segment STATE, you can
		  define segment codes using two characters for each state in which your
		  organization maintains assets. When you enter an asset that is located in
		  California, you select the segment code CA for the segment STATE.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>Each location segment has one default segment code, although
		  you can define as many segment codes for each segment as needed.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>The first segment code you add is used as default. You can
		  change the default by using the Sets Default Segment Code command of the
		  Specific menu.</Paragraph>

            <Paragraph>You must define the location segment and code before it can
