Hi Srinivasan,

We specify how a project number is coded for editing

Create masks for editing the project number. Masks help display complex project numbers. They can also be used to indicate the position of a WBS element in the project hierarchy.

The following characters are available for editing:

• For alphanumeric characters

• 0 for numeric characters

• Special characters to organize the project numbers

Configuration Details

We can maintain the following parameters for editing the project number:

• The length of the key for project coding

We can assign up to five places for the key.

• An indicator specifying whether the key must have this exact

length or whether it can also be shorter

• Special characters to enter WBS elements faster

An indicator specifying whether only coded project numbers can be used to create projects

Special characters are :- Example PL (4) ET (*), SP (/ , . , > , < , = , - etc)

Project Coding Mask:- How do you define the Project Structure (Levels etc)

and how you want its numbering system to be seen/saved.

Examples:-

For Project Id = CCMD

Coding Mask = xxxx-00-xx-XX

Hi

<u><i>Special characters</i></u> are :- Example <b>PL (4) ET (*), SP (/ , . , > , < , = , - etc)</b>

<i><u>Project Coding Mask</u></i>:- How do you define the Project Structure (Levels etc)

and how you want its numbering system to be seen/saved.

Examples:-

<b>For Project Id = CCMD

Coding Mask = -XXXX-00-XX-XXXXXXX</b>

Hope this will help you,
