Step-by-Step Usage Instructions
Creating Batch ALT ID Generation
Step 1: Access the Batch ALT ID Generation Interface
Navigate to the Batch ALT ID Generation module using the steps above.
You will see the main dashboard with a description: "This module helps in creating ALT ID generation in bulk using a file upload. It provides a holistic view of the files uploaded. Upon clicking the filename in the table below a detailed view of each ALT ID generation uploaded is displayed."
The interface displays any previously uploaded batch ALT ID generation files in a table format.
Step 2: Initiate New Batch ALT ID Generation Upload
Click the "Create Batch ALT ID Generation" button (visible only to users with appropriate permissions).
If maker-checker workflow is enabled for your account, you will first see a description modal:
Enter a description for the batch ALT ID generation request in the text field.
Click "Submit" to proceed to the file upload interface.
If maker-checker is not enabled, you will directly access the file upload interface.
Step 3: Prepare and Upload CSV File
Download Sample File: Click on the sample file link to download the CSV template (
batch_altid_provision_sample.csv).Prepare Your Data: Fill in your card data following the CSV field specifications (see table below).
File Limitations:
Maximum 1000 rows per file
CSV format only
File size limitations apply
Upload Process:
Click "Choose File" or drag and drop your CSV file
The system validates the file format and structure
Mandatory fields are checked (Card Number, Card Expiry Month, Card Expiry Year)
Column types are validated (Card Number as String, Expiry Month/Year as String)
Step 4: File Processing and Validation
File Validation: The system performs the following checks:
CSV format validation
Mandatory field presence (cardNumber, cardExpiryMonth, cardExpiryYear)
Data type validation for each column
Card number length validation (15 or 16 digits)
Expiry date validation
Row count validation (maximum 1000 rows)
Error Handling: If validation fails, specific error messages are displayed:
Missing mandatory fields
Invalid card number length (must be 15 or 16 digits)
Invalid expiry date format
File format errors
Row limit exceeded
Successful Upload: Upon successful validation:
File is queued for processing
Batch ID is generated
Initial status is set to processing
ALT ID generation process begins
Step 5: Monitor Processing Status
Status Indicators:
ACCEPTED: Successfully generated ALT IDs (Green indicator)
FAILED: Failed ALT ID generation attempts (Red indicator)
QUEUED: ALT ID requests waiting in processing queue (Blue indicator)
