License Plate Segment Definition (P46L010)

You can set up segment definitions for LPNs. Segment details include the sequence and the length, which combined, form the license plate number. You also specify which segment types appear and in which order. Segment types include hard coded values, look up types such as container codes, next numbers, or check digits.

You can set up complicated formulas or simple formulas. Formulas are made up of segments. An example of a simple segment would be using Next Numbers. Or, you can set up any combination of hard coded, Next Number, look-up types, container-based UDC, and check digit segments, up to a length of 40. An example might be to set up a hard-code value to identify the branch/plant followed by a next number range.
