Definition

Specifies the position in the material number at which the color supplement key is inserted.

Note

You have established that there are enough free spaces in the material number for the color supplement key, so that when the color supplement key is inserted

  • in the material number, it does not overwrite spaces that are no longer intended for the color supplement key
  • at the end of the material number, the total number of digits for the material number is not exceeded.

Example

In the following example, the material number of the color-neutral part and the colored part is 10 digits. The color code is 3 digits and is inserted at the fifth digit of the material number. Here, the system overwrites 3 digits in the material number of the color-neutral part with the color code.

Example 2

In this example, the material number of the color-neutral part and the colored part is also 10 digits and the color code 3 digits. After the 8th digit of the material number, 3 digits are left free so that the color code can be added at the explosion.
