You may have an application, such as serial numbers, in which you need a numeric field to increment (increase in value) or decrement (decrease in value) on successive tickets within a single batch. Incrementing or decrementing can be applied to numeric data only. If you have a field that includes letters and digits, apply incrementing or decrementing to only the portion of the field that contains digits. Do not use with Option 42 (price field).

Syntax		R,60,I/D,amount,l pos,r pos p
R1.	R	Option Header.
R2.	60	Option 60.
R3.	I/D	I	incrementing field
		D	decrementing field
R4. amount		Amount to increase or decrease. Range: 0- 999.
R5. l pos		Leftmost position in inc/dec portion of field. If this value is not
		entered, the default value 1 is used. Range:		0 2710
		(1 - 100 for 9403).
R6. r pos		Rightmost position in inc/dec portion of field.		If this value is
		not used, the entire field length is used as the default.
		Range:	0 - 2710 (1 - 100 for 9403).
Example		R,60,I,5,1,6 p

Increments a field by 5 each time the field is printed. The field increments beginning with the first left position and ending with the sixth position.

There are two ways to enter the first number in the incrementing sequence. You can use batch data or use Option 1 to define the first number as a fixed character.The first number in the sequence must contain the same amount of digits as the highest number to be counted. For example, to count the numbers 1 to 999, the first number in the sequence must be entered as 001.
