Working with Sequence Specifications

You use Sequence specifications with Entity Identification specifications to customize the sequence of an ID for an entity, by defining the maximum, minimum and increment values for the sequence.

For example, you can create sequence specifications for serial numbers or connection IDs. See UIM Developer's Guide for more information.
