Figure 1839: Here, you define to which degree the location designation should be included in the definition of numbering areas.

"Location" here refers to the part of item designation which is normally specified with a plus sign ("+"), and which are typically stored in the ORT attribute of cadett ELSA symbols, in the ORT block in the upper left corner of the drawing frame, or in a boundary box.

If it is a good idea or not to include the location designation in the definition of numbering areas, depends on the overall project structure. Please refer to the General orientation about numbering areas topic for a further explanation about that.

You have six options to select from, all of them described in the table below.

Option	Description
Not included	The definition of numbering areas will not take location designations into consideration at all. The numbering areas can for example be completely based on function designations.
0 - All levels	The location designation in its entirety is included in the definition of numbering areas.
1 - The first level only	The first level of the location designation, counted from left to right, is included in the numbering area definition. Any lower levels, if they exist, are not included.
2 - The two first levels only	The two first levels of the location designation, counted from left to right, are included in the numbering area definition. Any levels lower than that, if they exist, are not included.
3 - The three first levels only	The three first levels of the location designation, counted from left to right, are included in the numbering area definition. Any levels lower than that, if they exist, are not included.
4 - The four first levels only	The four first levels of the location designation, counted from left to right, are included in the numbering area definition. Any levels lower than that, if they exist, are not included.
