Use Sequence Definition Maintenance when required to setup many locations of the same type. Sequence Definition Maintenance lets you define how controlled sequences of numbers are structured.

The program lets you specify the format and range of the location identifiers when you use Mass Location Maintenance to create a number of storage locations. You can specify the type of sequence such as integer, character, fixed, date, and so on as well as the format.

The first sequence is Type F (fixed) and is the prefix of the label. The second sequence is the variable integer. In this case, the integer is three digits starting at 1 and ending at 999 with a increment of 1. You can have more than 2 sequences but remember the location field capacity is 8 characters.

There are five frames and six fields in Sequence Definition Maintenance used for configuration.
