Setting Up Blend IDs

Access the Edit Blend ID Definition Information form.

Segment Number

Enter the segment number for the blend ID coding structure. The segment number is a sequential number from one through 10 that uniquely identifies the individual segments of the blend ID.

Parameter Type

Enter a UDC (31B/PY) that specifies the parameter type. Values are:

• Free text

• Fixed text

• Instructable attribute

• Lot attribute (material type or wine status)

• Summary attribute

• Sequence number

Parameter Value

Enter a free-form value, for example, the material type from one of the lot attributes or – (a hyphen) for fixed text.

Segment Length

Enter the length of the specific segment for the blend ID format. Individual segments must be greater than zero and must not exceed this number of characters:

• Lot Summary Attribute: 4

• Lot Attribute: 4

• Instructable Attribute: 4

• Fixed Text: 4

• Free Text: 15

• Sequence Number: 5

Specify whether the blend ID definition can use a substitute. The system substitutes the normal value for the associated value that is defined in UDC (31B/SL).
