Hi Experts,
Our Client Uses Article Number as EAN Code in IS Retail system.
He Requires Alphanumeric EAN with Length from 13 to 18.
I have assigned Number Range Interval from 000001A ~ 999999ZZZZZZZZZZZ.
System is accepting these article Codes 602-ZZ-888-XL, 5002-ZZ-888-L, 5002-ZZ-888-XL, where as not accepting this article Code 602-ZZ-888-L as EAN.
Pls suggest why system is not accepting this ?
Is there any way to find out what are the values in between (000001A ~ 999999ZZZZZZZZZZZ) for this series?
If I am using Alpha numeric EAN, whether is it mandatory to have 18 digits?
Any Input is highly apreciable.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar. M

Hi Sevakumar,
For each interval, you define whether numbers are assigned externally or internally.
Be sure to enter 18-character number range intervals, that is, with leading zeros if necessary, since the system will otherwise interpret your entry as left-justified.
If you enter ABCD, the system will interpret your entry as ABCD______________. However, if you want the system to interpret your entry as right-justified, you must enter 00000000000000ABCD.
Example
You want to create an interval for 13-figure instore EANs which start with 200. You enter only the first 12 figures, leaving the 13th figure blank:
From number To number
200000000000_ 200999999999_
Since your requirement is not Standard you can explore using "BADI_EAN_SYSTEMATIC"
