Syntax

O07

Description

Provides a unique index to the Order when combined with the Order Number and Date. The System is capable of supporting duplicate Order Numbers, which will for a given date will have a increased sequence to distinguish them internally.

If you are planning to use the Report Generator in conjunction with the Data Import module to amend existing orders, it is essential to include the Ledger, Account Code, Order Number, Date & Sequence variables in your output in order to identify the original Order. Otherwise, additional Orders with the same number, but an increased sequence would be created.


Parameters

None.

Returns

A numeric value whose typical size is 8 digits.
