Data Entry
To enter data using the ACLI, your entries must conform to required field formats.
This section describes these formats, gives information about preset values, default
values, and error messages.
The final part of this section covers information about using quotation marks (“”)
and parentheses (()) to enhance your data entry options and capabilities.
ACLI Field
Formats
This section describes required data entry formats. You can learn the data type for a
field by using the menu or the help function.
Boolean Format Boolean entries take the form of either enabled or disabled. To choose one of these
two values, type either enabled or disabled.
Carrier Format Carrier entries can be from 1 to 24 characters in length and can consist of any
alphabetical character (Aa-Zz), numerical character (0-9), punctuation mark (! ”$ %
^ & * ( ) + - = ‘ | { } [ ] @ / \ ‘ ~ , . _ : ; ), or any combination of alphabetical characters,
numerical characters, or punctuation marks. For example, both 1-0288 and
acme_carrier are valid carrier field formats.
Date Format Date entries must adhere to the ccYY-mM-dD format, where cc is the century, YY is
the year, mM is the month, and dD is the day (e.g., 2005-06-10). The minimum entry
