Field description

Name

To assign an alphanumeric name of up to 15 characters. You can leave this field blank.

Number

To enter a number. The default is blank.

You can use wildcards, such as a plus (+) sign and a question (?) mark. The plus (+) sign represents a group of digits. The question (?) mark represents a single digit.

The field is limited to 16 characters with the following restrictions:

  • You can use a plus sign (+), a question mark (?), or numbers from 0 to 9. No other entries are valid.

  • You can use a plus sign (+) as the first or the last character in the number field. You cannot use this character as the sixteenth character of the number field.

  • You can use many question (?) marks.

  • You cannot use blank spaces in the number field.

  • If you leave the field blank, the system stores a null value.

Sort

To determine whether to sort the digit fields. Valid entries are y and n.

You can sort the number fields as follows:

  • Plus (+) signs sort first.

  • Question (?) marks sort second.

  • All numbers from 0 to 9 sort last.

Leading zeros are significant that means that 02 sorts ahead of a 2 followed by a space.
