Project Prefix

On the Project Parameters form, enter the default prefix for new project numbers that will be entered on the Projects form.

For example, if you enter UX in the Project Prefix field, the default project numbers used at this site will be UX00000001, UX00000002, UX00000003, etc. If you do not enter a value in the Project Prefix field, the default project numbers used at this site will be 1, 2, 3, etc. Since the total project number length includes prefix and digits, longer prefixes reduce the range of numbers available.

A prefix can consist of numeric and non-numeric (letters and symbols) characters. However, the prefix should end with an alphabetic character to ensure that the system increments project numbers correctly.
