1 Control File Element s (L) LA Language Codes STYLEman is a multi-language system allowing menus, help text, error messages, screen display text and report text to be set up in any language. Each user is assigned a language code via their operator id and this allows two people to access the same system and the same data but view it in their own language. The language code is represented by a two character code and the LA element allows the language to be defined more fully. Enter the two character code that is to be used to represent the particular languages. STYLEman is supplied in UK English and as such a default blank element key is set up to represent English. This also makes for more rapid report and screen selections when English is required. Enter a description of the language that the code entered represents. Enter "Y" in the first byte to indicate that the SoftOption SDI is used to run STYLEman. This ensures that the STYLEman routines are displayed correctly.

5 Control File Element s (L) LJ Last Journal Entry Number When a journal is raised within STYLEman the option is provided to either enter your own defined transaction number or to allow the system to enter the next available. If the latter is chosen the system automatically maintains the LJ element which represents the last one it used. Once set up this is maintained by the system. Last Jrn Last Journal Entry Number Number (blank) Last Journal Entry Number 240 LK Last Material Case Number STYLEman provides the facility to maintain stock details of defined materials at a detailed level, i.e. where width or dye-lot or method of manufacture are of importance. This is accomplished by allowing the information to be retained by Case (roll, piece, cone, etc.). Within stock receipts the receipt is broken down into cases. STYLEman allows either for the number to be manually entered or to allow the system to maintain the last one entered. If the latter is chosen the system automatically maintains the LK element which represents the last one it used. Once set up this is maintained by the system. Option Systems Limited,

7 Control File Element s (L) LN Last Number (Miscellaneous) STYLEman provides the facility for automatic numbering of codes within certain functions of the system. This element allows you to define how long the code will be and whether or not a check digit should be applied as the last character. The element also retains the last number utilised. "ASN" last ASN number used "BANKEXCH" last Bank List extract number used "BANKLIST" last Bank List number used "BILLEXCH" last Bill of Exchange number used "CARELABEL" last Care Label number used. (bespoke code only). "CARRLIST" last carrier list number used "CARTLABL" last carton label number used "CARTONGRN" last GRN number used when receiving goods into a carton warehouse. (bespoke code only). "CONSINV" last Consolidated Invoice number used "CONTACT" last Customer Contact number used "DDBATCH" Direct Batches are created DESPATCH Last despatch note number (DESHPF) NOTE under PB:25934 this becomes a mandatory "DD" last direct debit batch number used "FABRIC' last Fabric number used. (bespoke use only). "GRN" automatic numbering of GRN's for noncarton Purchase Orders which are being received into a carton warehouse. Note: The AA - GRN key must be defined before this key can be used. "INVOICEC" & "INVOICEZ" last invoice number for Italian invoices dependent upon the year number "ISSUDESP" last fabric despatch number. (bespoke code only). "LABELxxx" where 'xxx' is the carrier code. The incrementing number is held in numeric variable 1 and 2. holds the "base" number and variable 2 the incrementing number. For example, variable 1 holds 1001 and variable 2 is incremented so that the numbers are , etc. (bespoke use only). "MATERIAL" automatic numbering of raw material codes "NOMINAL" last bespoke Nominal Ledger Batch number used "PRECLIST" last pre-loading list number used (bespoke use only). "PUTAWAY" last Stock Putaway Sheet number used "SHAPExx" 'xx' is the style brand code. Numeric variable 1 holds the incrementing shape number used when creating styles via a bespoke program.(bespoke code only). "SHIPREF" last Shipment Reference number used "SPLRDEBT" last supplier debit note number used SSCC (bespoke use only) This control file element stores the international standard carton reference: SSCC. The structure of the SSCC barcode is: Digits 1-2 from DC control file alpha variable 2. Digit 3 currently a "3". Digits 4-10 EDI path for ECI. LN SSCC control file numeric variable 1. Digits the barcode nnumber comes from first 9 positions of the description field in the LN SSCC control file. Digit 20 check digit. : Holds the last barcode number (9 digits) Numeric : holds a 7 digit value indicating the EDI path for ECI. Option Systems Limited,

8 Control File Element s (L) "STYLE" automatic numbering of style codes "TRANSHIP" last bespoke Transhipment Note number used "TRIMCODE" numeric variable 1 and numeric variable 2 hold the allowed trim code range for materials. (bespoke use only) "WHSEMOVE" last stock movement number used for movement of allocated stock Enter a suitable description as appropriate. For the "BANKEXCH" key a path and directory must be entered. Enter the starting point from which the numbering should begin, it may between 1 and 7 digits. This field will then automatically be maintained by the system as each number is generated. Note that the following restrictions apply dependent upon usage: "BANKEXCH" set at zero if numbering should start at 1 "DDBATCH" this will hold the last number and clock-on after each batch has been created "LABELxxx" holds the "base" number. "MATERIAL" between 3 & 7 digits (ref number length in Var.2) "STYLE" between 2 & 7 digits (ref number length in Var.2) Defines how long the code should be. Note that the following restrictions apply dependent upon usage: "DDBATCH" this will hold the maximum number of digits that make up the batch number (6) "LABELxxx" holds the incrementing number. "MATERIAL" the length of the code must be between 3 and 7 digits in length. If the length is defined outside of these parameters a default value of 3 will apply. "STYLE" the length of the code must be between 2 and 7 digits in length. If the length is defined outside of these parameters a default value of 4 will apply. TRANSHIP last bespoke Transhipment Note number used "TRIMCODE" numeric variable 1 and numeric variable 2 hold the allowed trim code range for materials. (bespoke use only) For "MATERIAL" & "STYLE" a check digit may be calculated and added to the end of the respective code. If "Y" is entered the system will calculate a check digit and apply it to the final position of the code i.e. if you define your code as four digits in length with a check digit the final code will be five digits in length. The check digit is calculated by multiplying each number by its position, adding the result together, dividing by 10, and the remainder being appended to the original number as the check digit. For example, the check digit for 1468 would be calculated: 1 x 1 = 1 4 x 2 = 8 6 x 3 = 18 8x4=32 59 / 10 = 5.9 therefore the remainder is 0.9, resulting in a check digit of 9. The code complete with check digit would be If "N" is entered the code will be as long as defined in. STYLE - bytes 1 and 2 determine the number the style will be incremented by. For an increase of one the entry would be '01'. When setting this number you should consider what will happen when the numbers loop back to the beginning, e.g., a 2 digit code incremented by 10 would give 10, 20,...90, 10 and 20 etc. This would not work as the numbers have already been used.
