            <Paragraph>An item code in ERP Enterprise can consist of a project segment and an item
			 segment. If no PCS or TP project is present for an item, which means the item
			 is neither customized (PCS) nor allocated (TP), the project segment of the item
			 code is empty. ERP Enterprise then
			 considers the item code as consisting of nine spaces, followed by the name in
			 the item segment.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>However, external applications usually do not recognize an
			 item code consisting of a project segment and an item segment, or an item code
			 preceded by nine spaces. Therefore, the project segment of an item code
			 transferred from ERP Enterprise to
			 an external application is not recognized as such by the external application,
			 and becomes part of the item name.</Paragraph>
            <Paragraph>To avoid defining item codes in ERP Enterprise that are conflicting
			 in external applications, select the <Link href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd9199m000#tcibd999.pcic" role="formfield">Check Project Code in Item Code</Link> check box.</Paragraph>
            <List>
               <ListIntro>If this check box is selected, and you add a new item
				code or project code, ERP Enterprise performs checks:</ListIntro>
               <ListItem>If you define an item in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd0501m000" role="session">Items - General (tcibd0501m000)</GUIRef> details session, the first nine characters of the item
				name should not equal an existing project code in ERP Enterprise.</ListItem>
               <ListItem>If you define a project code in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/mcs/tcmcs0552m000" role="session">General Projects (tcmcs0552m000)</GUIRef> details session, the code should not equal the first
				characters of an existing item code in ERP Enterprise.</ListItem>
            </List>
            <Paragraph>Selecting this check box makes software performance
			 significantly worse. Instead, you can clear this check box and use the <Link href="/baanerp/tc/ibd/tcibd0401m100" role="session">Print Items where a Project Code is part of the Item Code (tcibd0401m100)</Link> session to check whether a range of existing item codes or project codes will
			 produce conflicts for external applications.</Paragraph>
