• Create a number reservation:


It is possible to define a range of numbers that will be reserved for future use or to subcontract part of a design.

The numbers will be reserved from the current counter. That is, if the last used counter number is 10200, reserving a range of 1000 numbers for the subcontractor, the next counter reading will show 11201.


 


The name of the reservation is recorded (scxml extension).


 


This file can be re-imported after use by the subcontractor.

You will receive a message that the next counter reading will be changed.


 


If the subcontractor does not use one of the Visiativ tools, a reservation file in CSV format will have to be generated.

 


  • Import a reservation range :


When you click on this icon, one of the exported files is loaded. You must select the reservation file that was generated (.scxml).


 


A visualization of the personalized list is presented and especially the next value of the counter to be taken is given.

Before the preview, information messages may appear depending on the reservations loaded:

    • If a number reservation already exists (import validation or not)
    • If a counter with the same ID already exists (import impossible)


  • View reservations :  


By clicking on this button it is possible to view all reservations created for a counter in order to check the start and end values of the numbers that can be taken by the contractor.

In the following example we see that 2 reservations have been made on the counter Client_2 (single counter) :

    • For Visiativ_2 1000 numbers have been reserved, the starting number taken will be 00 and the last one that can be used will be 999.
    • For the Visiativ_1 500 numbers have been reserved, the starting number taken will be 1000 and the last one that can be used will be 1499.

So the next starting value of my counter will be 1500.

By clicking on this icon it is always possible to export the reservation file in CSV format.


 


For advanced counters (cumulative type) there is also a list of reservations.
