Banking Reference Number; new options to specify Prefix and Length

There are new options to specify a Prefix and Length for the Banking Reference Number. This allows BPAY references to be generated that include a Bank allocated facility code, such as Westpac's Payway product.

In Westpac's Payway case, a 5 digit facility code precedes the zero padded, right aligned Account code and then the final digit is a check digit calculated using the BPAY MOD10V01 method. This makes a 14 digit BPAY Reference.

The Prefix and Length are defined under Tools, Global Settings, Accounts, General page.

Note, existing Summary Page scripts may still use a constant "BankReferenceLength" to define the length of the BPAY Reference, and this overrides the Global Setting. However, you may prefer to remove this constant and rely upon the Global Setting.

The following Script Standard Blocks have been updated:

Account_BankingReference has been updated to version 1.01 on 25/02/2014.
Account_Summary has been updated to version 1.03 on 25/02/2014.
