How can I trigger the automted status change on OT&E for mark records in non-latin script

In order to trigger the automated status change for mark records in non-latin script in the OT&E interface, you can use the following number codes.

  • valid (1000)
  • invalid (2000)
  • incorrect (3000)

for Mark Records, POU, UDRP Cases and Labels.

The number codes can also be used for mark records in latin script, but the original triggers will also work. Please refer to the OT&E documentation, in the download section, for more detailed information.
