Specify whether N4 must implement check digit validation for existing equipment IDs.
Set it to true if you want N4 to automatically replace the check digit with the existing record's check digit when a user enters an incorrect check digit.
Set it to false if you do not want N4 to use the existing record's check digit as the check digit for equipment IDs.
If you define the check digit algorithm (on page 1) for an equipment prefix, N4 displays an error message when a user enters an incorrect check digit.
If ARGODOUBLEBLIND003 is set to false and you receive an EDI message where the equipment number in the EDI differs from a known equipment ID only in the check digit, N4 checks the equipment prefix definition (on page 1) and performs one of the following options:
If the equipment prefix is not defined, N4 rejects the EDI transaction.
If the equipment prefix specifies a check digit algorithm, N4 corrects the check digit based on the check digit algorithm.
If the equipment prefix defines that the check digit is a part of the equipment ID uniqueness, N4 treats the slightly different equipment number as an entirely different equipment, and saves the new equipment to the database.
If there is not an existing equipment ID, there is no record against which to validate. The behavior is:
When set to true - N4 does not raise an error or create a check digit - even if ARGODOUBLEBLIND002 (DYNAMIC_CREATE) (on page 1) is set to true.
When set to false - N4 does not raise an error because there is no record against which to validate.
