Creating a Serial Number from an Add-in

If a list or format string does not cover your needs, you can use an Enterprise PDM serial number add-in to create a serial number.

See the Enterprise PDM Programmer's Reference Guide for information on creating a serial number add-in using Visual Basic .Net or C++.

To create a serial number from an add-in:

Use the Administrate Add-ins dialog box to add the serial number add-in to the vault. Installing Enterprise PDM Add-ins.
Right-click Serial Numbers and select New Serial Number.
In the Serial Number dialog box, type the serial number name.
For Type, select Serial number from add-in.
In the Name of add-in list, select the add-in.
In Next counter value, set the starting value for the serial number. You can start from any integer number.
Click OK.
