3.6.6 Object Data Source - Serial Number

The Serial Number setting allows you to serialize your labels numerically. Objects that can be
serialized numerically are Barcodes and Text boxes.

To Create a Serial Number Object

1. With the object (Text or Barcode) in the Design window, click the

Serial Number button on the Properties box > Data Source tab.
The following screen appears:

2. Select if you want your labels serialized in Incrementing series or

Decrementing series by selecting the appropriate radio button.

3. Enter the beginning number in the Start at seed: field, then enter

how many characters you want to increase per a set number of
labels in the Step and Every fields. For example, the default
settings (shown in the screen shot above) sets the serialization to
start at the number 1 and increase one digit (step) every one label.
So each label will go up one level. Changing the Every field to 2
means that the number will increase one (step) every 2 labels.

4. By default the serialization continues past Z to AA, BB, etc. If you

want to change this, select the Rollover after checkbox and enter a
value. After the entered value is reached (the default is Z), the
serialization will start over with the seed value.

5. If you set the labels to rollover after a set value and do not want

them to reset to the seed value, select the Reset after rollover
checkbox. Enter the value you want to restart at in the field
provided.
