Auto Generate Pro Number |
To generate PRO numbers automatically, select this check box. |
Pro Number Length |
Type the total length of the PRO number used by this LTL Generic carrier. The total length includes the company ID and PRO number prefix. The maximum total length is 20 characters. The default value for this field is 15. |
Pro Number Prefix |
Type the prefix to use with PRO numbers for this LTL Generic carrier. |
Company ID |
Type the company ID which is a prefix for generating PRO numbers. PRO numbers are used by LTL carriers and print on the Bill of Lading. |
Check Digit Algorithm |
Type the algorithm for calculating the check digit in tracking numbers for this Generic carrier. The following are supported algorithms: •DSR_10 •DR_10 •SR_10 •DSR_11 •MOD_7 •MOD_10 •AADR_10 •MOD_11 •DIGIT_10 •MOD_11A •MOD_X •NONE Note: The default for this field is NONE. For more information on check digit algorithms in general, see the Bill of Lading Check Digit Algorithm description. |
Start |
Type the first tracking number of the PRO number range. The default value is 1. Note: This is the tracking number portion of the of the Pro Number. The maximum number of characters for this field is 10. |
End |
Type the last tracking number of the PRO number range. The default value is 9999999. Note: This is the tracking number portion of the of the Pro Number. The maximum number of characters for this field is 10. |
Increment By |
Type the number by which to increment the PRO number each time a PRO number is generated. For example, you might want to increment the PRO number by 10 for each package so that the PRO number always ends in a zero (if the first PRO number in the PRO number range ends in a zero). The default value for this field is 1. |
Max Pro No Warning Start Before |
Type the maximum number of remaining Pro numbers less than which a warning message will be displayed. In other words, if there are this number or fewer Pro numbers remaining in the current range of Pro numbers and the future range is not available, then a warning message is displayed. The default is 10. |
