30th November2011 NGPP x.x Build x: Additional enhancements to the Contribution application

• Evolution of the Contribution numbering scheme

Starting from 2012 contributions and for contributions created in 2011 and attached to a 2012 meeting the new numbering scheme will be as the following:

                                               TBName(YY)XXXZZZ --> <CommunityId>(YY)<MeetingID><contribSeqNb>

Meeting ID: optional can be defined to reflect the Meeting reference. Otherwise for the Comittees who wish to keep the yearly contributions numbering scheme, THEN the XXX will be set to 000

ContribSeqNb:

IF Meeting ID defined THEN starts at 1 until last contribution linked to this meeting is reserved and/or <ReservationEndDate> is reached

IF Meeting ID not defined THEN the contribution numbering system takes over and allocates an automatic yearly numbering scheme

• Contributions can be assigned to several meetings

• Contributions assigned to a meeting and postponed to another meeting will keep its UID origin

• Possibility to set Reservation Start and End Dates with the option to block upload outside of the reservation range

• The Contribution File Name can now be changed in the contribution detailed view.
