Set Application Code Formats

This option allows you to set the prime index format for each of the application databases including the Works Order Reference.

The default format for the works order reference is 999999 – this forces the reference to be a numeric sequence of six numbers. If anticipating a large number of works orders to be maintained on the system, or you are transferring from an alternate system were the starting reference is already quite high you may want to increase the reference to seven 9’s or larger. The maximum reference size is sixteen characters.

The ‘Company Name’ displayed here is used as the company name displayed in all reports including the Bill of Materials reports.
