Overview
The bag batch generation feature creates the names for new bags by using a pattern provided by you, where
certain letters get replaced by the various components specified above. The usable pattern or template keys
are:
- A -- first optional fixed part
- B -- second optional fixed part
- V -- a variable part, see below
The manufacturing date and the material to use must both be specified in any case.
The variable part specifies a range, either numerical or alphabetical.
The pattern keys may be repeated and may appear in any order. Invalid pattern keys are ignored.
You may preview the expected results by hitting the update button. If you're happy with the results, hit
accept to
actually create the bags. Bags where the name already exists are skipped during the actual generation. The
amount
of generated bag names is limited to 200.
