Definition

Name of a check function that checks the specified identifier.

Use

The check function determines whether the identifier you entered fulfills certain criteria. Such criteria might be:

  • Number of digits
  • Check digit
  • Valid special characters (for example, CAS no.: 987-34-9)
  • Numeric / alphanumeric

If you want to define a check function for an identification type, you need to assign it to that identification type in Customizing.

Check functions C142_CASNO, C142_EECNO, C142_EGNO, C142_EINECSNO, and C142_INDEXNO are already defined in the standard system. These check functions are used to check ID numbers (CAS, EEC, EC, EINECS, INDEX numbers). The check functions you define must feature similar interfaces.

Example

  • C142_CASNO
  • C142_EECNO
  • C142_EGNO
  • C142_EINECSNO
  • C142_INDEXNO

Dependencies

The check function is dependent on the identification type and can be set up in Customizing.

The check function must feature a correct interface and must be actively available in the system.
