         <Paragraph>Use this session to maintain <Link href="/baanerp/tf/glossary/glossary#000137" role="glossary">location</Link> segments. You use
segments to define the types of location information you want to track for your
organization's assets. For each location segment, you also define a set of valid
values called <Link href="/baanerp/tf/glossary/glossary#000144" role="glossary">segment</Link> codes. When you assign a location to an
asset, you select a segment code for each location segment in the location
format for that asset.</Paragraph>
      </AimSection>
      <GeneralSection>
         <Paragraph>The segment codes and the segment defaults are defined in the <Link href="/baanerp/tf/fam/tffam5100m000" role="session">Location Segment and Segment (tffam5100m000)</Link> subsession, and the order of the location format is defined in the <Link href="/baanerp/tf/fam/tffam5210m000" role="session">Define Location Format (tffam5210m000)</Link> subsession. For example, you can add the location segment BLDG
to identify the building in which an asset is located. You would then define a
segment code for each specific building in your organization. For instance, you
can specify MANUFACTURE for the manufacturing facility and WRHS for the
warehouse.</Paragraph>
