Description.  Block Code Template that will be used to define a default Block Code.

Internal Name. DEFAULT_BLOCK_CODE_TEMPLATE

Property Determination. When this setting is defined, blocks are automatically assigned the default block code template. For each subsequent block created, you are warned that a block with that particular Block Code already exists and then asked if you want to proceed. To avoid creating multiple blocks with the same Block Code, set the application parameter Blocks>Unique Block Code to Y to form a unique variation of the Default Block Code Template. The application parameter Blocks>Enforce Block Code Length set to Y used in conjunction with the Default Block Code Template, control the length of each block code variation generated from the manual entry of the block code based on the default. The length will be evaluated against the template length and only entries of the same length as the template are valid. When the application parameter Blocks>Auto Assign Sub Block Codes, is used in conjunction with the Default Block Code Template, sub business block codes are generated using the same rules as stated above.
