This figure shows the standard item setup in MetaSolv Solution.

The first step is to review the preloaded item types and verify if the required item types are missing or available.

If the required item types are missing, create new item types and add new item relationship types.

If the required item types are available, define standard service items and verify if the standard item type have valid values.

If the standard item types have valid values, define the window labels to be used when collecting the valid values. Then, define the valid values defined window label, and then define the standard relationships that the standard items may have.

If the standard item types do not have valid values, define the standard relationships that the standard items may have.
