|---|---|---|
|
CustomerSite |
Returns True if the hardware key attached to the local workstation is a customer or dealer key, and False if it is an AnyDoc employee key. For more information, see CustomerSite (Method)(page CustomerSite (Method)). |
AnyApp Pre-Application, AnyApp Post-Algorithm, AnyApp Post-Application, Post Extract, AnyApp Post Extract, Pre-Verify, Interactive, Verification Function Key (F-Key), Post-Verify, ZoneLink |
|
FormatPhoneNumber |
This function takes the string expression passed in, attempts to format the string expression as if it were a phone number and return it with either 7 or 10 digits. For more information, see FormatPhoneNumber (Method)(page FormatPhoneNumber (Method)). |
AnyApp Pre-Application, AnyApp Post-Algorithm, AnyApp Post-Application, Post Extract, AnyApp Post Extract, Pre-Verify, Interactive, Verification Function Key (F-Key), Post-Verify, ZoneLink |
|
GetUSStateAbbreviation |
Given a state name or an abbreviation, this function returns the state code abbreviation for the given state. For more information, see GetUSStateAbbreviation (Method)(page GetUSStateAbbreviation (Method)). |
AnyApp Pre-Application, AnyApp Post-Algorithm, AnyApp Post-Application, Post Extract, AnyApp Post Extract, Pre-Verify, Interactive, Verification Function Key (F-Key), Post-Verify, ZoneLink |
|
IsICD9Code |
Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the value passed in is in the format of an ICD-9 code. For more information, see IsICD9Code (Method)(page IsICD9Code (Method)). |

|
IsISBNCode |
Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the value passed in is in the format of an ISBN code. For more information, see IsISBNCode (Method)(page IsISBNCode (Method)). |
AnyApp Pre-Application, AnyApp Post-Algorithm, AnyApp Post-Application, Post Extract, AnyApp Post Extract, Pre-Verify, Interactive, Verification Function Key (F-Key), Post-Verify, ZoneLink |
|
IsNMFCCode |
Returns True if the string evaluated is in a legal format for an NMFC (National Motor Freight Classification), and False otherwise. It is important to note that the function does not determine if the data is actually a valid code, but rather if the data is in the proper format to be a valid code, much in the same way that 00000 is not a valid zip code, but it is in the proper format for a zip code. For more information, see IsNMFCCode (Method)(page IsNMFCCode (Method)). |
