Number Assignment and Information

Function Group SNR3

• NUMBER_CHECK

  This function module checks whether a number is in a predefined external interval.

• NUMBER_GET_INFO

  This function module gets information about an interval.

• NUMBER_GET_NEXT

  This function module assigns the next free numbers of an interval. The default setting is to assign one number, unless the parameter QUANTITY specifies a larger number.

  If more than one number is required and there are only a few numbers left until the interval limit, only numbers up to the interval limit are assigned. If the last number has been assigned, in the next call the first interval number is assigned again.

  The length of the number depends on the definition of the number range object. During assignment, however, the length is not determined by the definition, but is calculated from the length of the From number of the interval.
