You can define the application no range, branch wise and the academic year wise.
Application number setting can be Manual or Online. Follow the below path to update the application number sequence
Settings --> Admissions --> Application no. Settings
Note :
1. Only the active sequence low priority number will be considered for the validation. The application number is the number which is printed on application form and this should be unique in the academic year.
2. If no application range is defined, still you can use the front office at the branch level, where in the branch level user needs to enter the application number. However it cannot be validated but validates for duplicate entry.
