O p t i o n 6 0 ( I n c r e m e n t i n g / D e c r e m e n t i n g F i e l d s )
You may have an application, such as serial numbers, in which
you need a numeric field to increment (increase in value) or
decrement (decrease in value) on successive tickets within a
single batch. Incrementing or decrementing can be applied to
numeric
data only. If you have a field that includes letters and
digits, apply incrementing or decrementing to only the portion of
the field that contains digits. Do not use with Option 42 (price
field).

There are two ways to enter the first number in the incrementing
sequence. You can use batch data or use Option 1 to define the
first number as a fixed character.The first number in the sequence
must contain the same amount of digits as the highest number to be
counted. For example, to count the numbers
1
to
999
, the first
number in the sequence must be entered as
001
.
