The aim of UUIDs is to allow unique identifiers to be assigned without conflict in distributed systems.A UUID is stored in 128 bits (16 bytes). A canonical printable form represents them as 32\u00a0hexadecimal\u00a0digits, displayed in five groups separated by hyphens. The format is 8-4-4-4-12\u00a0which makes 36 characters including 32 digits and 4 hyphens.There are approximately 3*10^38 possible UUIDs. All the operating systems provide a function to generate UUIDs. The algorithm usually combines the current time, a unique number assigned to the computer and a random number. The generation algorithm makes it unique in the whole digital universe, (or at least unique with a probability less than 10 power minus 88).<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>New Stuff: <\/strong><\/em><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greytrix.com\/blogs\/sagex3\/2014\/12\/31\/link-tables-in-sage-erp-x3-through-coding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Link tables in Sage ERP X3 through coding.<\/span><\/a><em><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The SAFE X3 engine includes a set of instructions and functions to support UUIDs:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Uuident<\/strong> to declare a UUID variable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nulluuid<\/strong> to manage a null (not assigned) UUID.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Touuid<\/strong> to transform a canonical form to a UUID<strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Getuuid<\/strong> to generate a UUID.<\/p>\n<p>By default, a UUID column is now present on every Sage ERP X3 table.<\/p>\n<p>When grids are managed by Sage ERP X3, client lines are identified by UUIDs.
