Regular Expressions

• When creating conditions Cargo Office offers the possibility to use regular expressions.
• How to use regular expressions you have to find out yourself at the internet.
• We don't offer courses, but we hereby give a few examples.
• If you should want to, we can have our consultants (help you) build regular expressions.

Example: how to select multiple customer ID's

• One customer ID: {customerID} = 1234
• Two customer ID's: {customerID} REGEXP ^(1234|12345)$
• Three customer ID's: {customerID} REGEXP ^(1234|12345|12346)$
• Note: it's better not to use {customerID} REGEXP 1234|12345|12346 ; this will select 1234 (and 12345 and 12346) inside a customerID name.
• Note2: it is possible to test multiple fields in one condition. This is useful for goodslines. An example of testing all packing fields for the value 'pallet' would then be: {packing1}{packing2}{packing3}{packing4}{packing5} REGEXP pallet.
