Contents of the Organization Number Format Form

You specify the number of levels, the delimiter used, and the labels for your organization numbers.

Field Description
Number of Levels This field displays the number of organization levels, up to 5 levels.
Delimiter Symbol Enter the desired delimiter for your organization number. The current delimiter for your organization code appears for reference.

A delimiter must be a special character, such as a period (.) or a comma (,); not 0 to 9, A to Z, or |.

Delimiters are counted as part of the organization number length. For example, if the total length is 6, the organization delimiter is a period (.), and the organization delimiter position is 4, the organization number appears as 456.78.

Label Click + Add Level to add a new level, up to 5 levels. Use to determine the order of the levels (the first one is level 1, the second one is level 2, and so on).

You do not determine the label of the level here. To add a new label to the level or change an existing one, go to Organization General Setup.

Length Enter the length of the organization number level . The total length of all levels, including delimiters, cannot exceed 14.
