Specifies which type of security stock is used to print each type of certificate, and allows Vitalware to monitor stock levels and provide an alert when stock levels are running low.

This Registry entry is assigned at the system level only:

where:

stock

is a type of stock recorded in the Stock module, e.g.

  • Security Stock
  • Birth Security Stock
  • Death Security Stock
  • Marriage Security Stock

certcode;certcode;...

is a semicolon separated list of certificate codes, i.e:

  • BC - Birth Certificate
  • DC - Death Certificate
  • MC - Marriage Certificate

In this first example, all certificates are printed on the same stock (which is true in the majority of cases):

Where different stock is used for different types of certificate, multiple entries would be added, e.g.:
