Identifying the Current Naming and Numbering Policy
The algorithm used to understand which policy is currently set in the system (for a particular container and class of object) is as follows:
If auto-numbering is set in object initialization rules, then the policy is auto-numbering.
If custom behavior is implemented in rules, then the policy is custom.
If neither auto-numbering nor custom behavior is set and the parameter-driven properties are set in Preference Management, then the policy is parameter-driven. Otherwise, the policy is name-driven. This is set in the Object Initialization Rules accessed in Site > Utilities > Object Initialization Rules Administration.
If neither auto-numbering or custom behavior is set and the parameter-driven properties are set in Preference Management, then policy is parameter-driven.
If number is not set by either auto-numbering or parameters, then numbering is name-driven.
