      <Paragraph>Many companies spend too  much time searching for items in their
information system. Although the information is available, the item
cannot be found immediately because the information is not organized
coherently. The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/ti/grt" role="module">Product Classification</GUIRef> module helps you increase the accessibility
of your item data as it enables you to set up a classification and
coding system that quickly retrieves items.</Paragraph>
