C1_ALTBLDV
The C1_ALTBLDV algorithm type is used to generate a unique alternate bill ID for the completed and pending bills within the division. For example, two bills (such as B1 and B2) belonging to the same division (such as D1) cannot have the same alternate bill ID. However, two bills (such as B1 and B2) belonging to different divisions, (such as D1 and D2) can have the same alternate bill ID.
This algorithm type contains the following parameter:
| Parameter | Description | Mandatory (Yes or No) |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Bill Sequence Number | Used to specify the initial alternate bill ID that you want
to use while sequencing. Note: If you do not specify any value for
this parameter, by default, the system will generate the initial alternate
bill ID for sequencing.
|
No |
If you attach an algorithm created using the C1_ALTBLDV algorithm type to the Sequence Generation Algorithm field in the Billing tab of the Installation Options screen, the algorithm is invoked while executing the Assign Sequential Bill Numbers (ASSGNSBN) batch.
