::Local ID generators are typically comprised of the following components:
::[Local ID Name]-[System Name]-[Incremented Number]. For example, CR-MAG HQ-1.
{| class="wikitable"
| '''Local ID Name''' || A text string that represents the item category or subcategory. For example, a completion report could be represented by “CR.”
|-
| '''System Name''' || A value specified in the Client Configuration Tool of the IMSMA<sup>NG</sup> {{IMSMANG}} [[Starting and Stopping IMSMANG | TrayLauncher ]] where system administrators can set a separate system name for each installation of IMSMA<sup>NG</sup>computer where {{IMSMANG}} is installed. For example, the Headquarters installation MAG Head quarter's computer could have “HQ” “MAG HQ” as a system name while a regional installation could have “R1“ MAG R1.”
|-
| '''Incremented Number''' || A value that increases each time a new ID is generated. Information managers can specify the next number to be generated when the local ID generator button is clicked. For example, a new local ID starting with CR-MAG HQ-1 and proceeding to CR-MAG HQ-2 and so on will be generated each time the Completion Report local ID generator is clicked.
