| Allow Duplicate Library Numbers | Set to Yes to allow duplicate Media numbers. |
| Use Auto Numbering | Set to Yes to allow auto-numbering of Media. |
| Add Users Division ID To Media Number | When set to Yes, the Division ID of the User who creates a Media will be embedded into the Media number. It will apply to new Media.
|
| Auto Number From All Libraries | Set to Yes to include all Libraries in the same auto-numbering sequence. Set to No to have separate auto-numbering for each Library. |
| Auto Numbering On Entries | There are four options for auto-numbering Entries:
|
| Mandatory Client | Set to Yes if a client must be defined on a Media. This information will be auto populated when linking a Media to a Project. |
| Must Link To Existing Client | Select if New Media must always be linked to an existing client from the contact database. This information will be auto populated when linking a Media to a Project. |

| Use Media Order Status Option | This setting causes an Active checkbox to appear on the left side in the Modify Media Order window, below Assigned To; and adds an extra status filter for Media Orders in Toolbox, called 'Closed But Not Invoiced' (status between Done and Invoiced). Used in the following workflow: User A moves a Media Order to Done once finished; User B (could be the Project Manager) checks it and sets it to Active:NO; User C invoices it. |
| Block Media Numbers | Set to Yes to block numbers after creating a new Media. If more than one user enters new Media in the Library, a new Media created will take the next available number which will be blocked until the Media is finally saved or canceled. If in the meantime, another user is entering a new Media at the same time, it will take the next available number. If the first Media is canceled before saving it, that number will then not be in use unless it is manually added to a Media. Set to No to get the same available number in two or more Medias being created at the same time. The first Media to be saved will finally get that number. When the second Media is saved, there will be a warning that the number allocated is now in use and the Media will be re-numbered using the next available number. If using this option, it is always recommended to first save a newly created Media (click OK) and then re-open it for printing reports and labels. |
