In a previous post I explained how to create a new Number Sequence in a existing module (Working with numbersequences – new NumberSequence). In this post I will explain how you can create a new Number Sequence-module.
I will create a new module called TEST (lack of inspiration).

Step-By-Step:

• First of all extend the existing Enum ‘NumberSeqModule’ with a new value ‘TEST’ and enter the name of the module in the Label-property
  
• create a new class called ‘NumberSeqReference_TEST‘ and that extends from ‘NumberSeqReference‘.
• Add a static method called ‘numberSeqModule’ and return the new value of the Enum.

  public static NumberSeqModule numberSeqModule()
  {
      return NumberSeqModule::TEST;
  }

• Override the Method loadModule and enter the necessary code for all the Number Sequences in your new module.

  protected void loadModule()
  {
      NumberSequenceReference numRef;
      ;
      /* TEST */
      numRef.DataTypeId               = typeId2ExtendedTypeId(typeid(TEST));
      numRef.ReferenceHelp            = literalstr("@SYS31561");
      numRef.WizardContinuous         = false;
      numRef.WizardManual             = NoYes::No;
      numRef.WizardAllowChangeDown    = NoYes::No;
      numRef.WizardAllowChangeUp      = NoYes::No;
      numRef.WizardHighest            = 999999;
      numRef.SortField                = 1;
   
      this.create(numRef);
  }

• In the class NumberSeqReference, you have to add some new lines so the system recognizes your new module. Complete the method construct & moduleList.
  
  
• Open the NumberSequence-form under BASIC – SETUP – NUMBER SEQUENCES – NUMBER SEQUENCES
  
• Open the Number Sequence-wizard
  
• Follow all the steps of the wizard and finish
  
   
  
• See how the new Number Sequence in the Number Sequence-form
  

From now on you can use your new Numbersequence and the module.
