Numbering scheme formats
The following formatting character codes are available for the definition of numbering schemes in order to meet all usual requirements. In the following, you find an overview of characters that are explained by an example.
Character |
Description |
|---|---|
* |
Placeholder for a digit. Leading zeros are ignored. For example, **** results in numbers with the format 1234, 1235, 1236, etc. A value of 0123 is output as 123 in the assigned number. |
# |
Placeholder for a digit. Leading zeroes are retained For example, **** results in numbers with the format 1234, 1235, 1236, etc. A value of 0123 is output as 0123 in the assigned number. |
@Y2 |
Current year -2-digits |
@Y4 |
Current year - 4-digits |
@M |
Current month |
@D |
Current day |
@h12 |
Current hour in 12 hour format |
@h24 |
Current hour in 24 hour format |
@ha |
Meridian indication for the 12 hour format (a.m., p.m.) |
@m |
Current minute |
@s |

' |
This symbol enables you to use the character codes *, # and @ as normal characters in a numbering scheme. For example, to include an asterisk in a numbering scheme format, enter an apostrophe directly before the asterisk: '* |
Example
In this example, we will assume that it is 15.02.2007, 17:56:01; the counter for orders created using this numbering scheme is at 12345
Formatting |
Results |
|---|---|
Order- ####### |
Order-0012345 |
Order- ******* |
Order-12345 |
@D.@M.@Y2 - ####-## |
15.02.07 - 0123-45 |
'#' ***** / @Y4 |
#12345 / 2007 |
@Y4 / R '#'###### - @h12:@m @ha |
2004 / R #012345 - 5:56 p.m. |
Note
The counter cannot exceed the number of placeholders defined in a numbering scheme. For example, if the placeholder #### is specified, the counter cannot pass 9999.
Variables in numbering schemes
When you create a numbering scheme, the use of variables is enabled by selecting the option Usage of variables. You can use up to 9 variables. When you enable a variable, the corresponding parameter ^V with the number of the variable is added in the pattern. The numbering scheme is saved with the parameter for the numbering field of the company or basic contract.
Note: The variables are filled with the corresponding values that have been saved for the parameter at the ordering or supplying company or in the basic contract. If the value is missing, the system reacts like for example when a numbering scheme expires and has no successor, the order process is cancelled.
The following parameters are displayed when creating a numbering scheme when displaying a 'start value' and an 'end value' and in the display of the pattern in the overview.
