Diagnosis

The entered number must conform to a module 19 check.

The MODULUS 19 Check is used to confirm the validity of the ECON/SCON provided by the Employer. It cannot identify if any of the digits of the reference number provided are incorrect therefore it shuld not be used to amend the reference number in an attempt to provide the correct SCON/ECON.

The calculation used to confirm the validity of the supplied SCON/ECON is as follows .-

FIXED VALUE FOR A SCON = 51

FIXED VALUE FOR AN ECON = 37

Example

To confirm the validity of SCON S1301234T, take the supplied digits of the reference number and multipy as follows

1 x 8 = 8

3 x 7 = 21

0 x 6 = 0

1 x 5 = 5

2 x 4 = 8

3 x 3 = 9

4 x 2 = 8

Total = 59

Total + Fixed Value(51) = 110

DIVIDE 110 by 19 = 5 remainder 15

The remainder is then checked against a table of check letters to confirm that the check letter is 'T'.

Procedure

Correct the entered number
