A method for assigning a workpiece to be processed to a mobile unit of an indoor location system used in a manufacturing hall in industrial processing of workpieces is provided. The method includes: providing a manufacturing control system for the industrial processing of workpieces with a machine tool in accordance with workpiece-specific processing plans, providing an assistance system for collecting measurement assistance workpiece data sets for the workpieces, detecting a workpiece to be assigned with the assistance system and generating a measurement-assistance-workpiece data set for the workpiece, comparing the measurement-assistance-workpiece data set with a processing plan-assistance-workpiece data set corresponding to the workpiece to identify a processing plan, providing a mobile unit assigned to the identified processing plan, the indoor location system configured to determine a position of the mobile unit, and spatially assigning the workpiece to the mobile unit assigned to the identified processing plan.
