Error Code Picker — Quick Reference

Step 1: Identify Your Product (100,000 codes each!)

Each product has 100,000 error codes available. Choose your product:

Step 2: Choose Feature Area (10,000 codes per feature)

Use the second digit to organize features. Each feature gets 10,000 codes.

FlowStudio Example (100000-199999):

Step 3: Identify Sub-Category (within 1,000-code feature block)

Each feature block has 1,000 codes organized by error type:

Step 4: Find Next Available Number

Method A: Quick Commands

# Find highest number in your product
grep -r "Error-FlowStudio-" src/ packages/ | \
  grep -o "[0-9]\{6\}" | sort -n | tail -1

# List all errors for your product (sorted)
ls ErrorManagement/ErrorCodes/Error-FlowStudio-*.html | sort -V

Method B: Check Error Index

1. Open: ErrorManagement/ErrorCodes/Index.html
2. Find your product section
3. See "Next Available" number (automatically updated)

Method C: Manual Verification

1. Open: C:\BizFirstGO_FI_AI\UserGuides\docs\WebSites\ErrorManagement\ErrorCodes\
2. List files: ls Error-FlowStudio-*.html | sort -V
3. Scan the highest numbers
4. Add 1 → That's your new code

Step 5: Validate Uniqueness

# Check if this code already exists
grep -r "Error-FlowStudio-100091" .
# Should return: No matches

# Check documentation
ls ErrorManagement/ErrorCodes/Error-FlowStudio-100091.html
# Should return: No such file

Step 6: Create Your Error Code

In Your Code

TypeScript/JavaScript:

const errorCode = 'Error-FlowStudio-100091';
throw new Error(`[${errorCode}] Description of what went wrong`);
console.error(`[${errorCode}] Additional context here`);

C#:

const string errorCode = "Error-FlowStudio-100091";
throw new ApplicationException($"[{errorCode}] Description of what went wrong");

Format Rules

✓ GOOD:    Error-FlowStudio-100091
✗ BAD:     error-flowstudio-100091
✗ BAD:     Error_FlowStudio_100091
✗ BAD:     ErrorFlowStudio100091

Step 7: Create Documentation Page

File Location:

C:\BizFirstGO_FI_AI\UserGuides\docs\WebSites\ErrorManagement\ErrorCodes\
Error-FlowStudio-100091.html

Use Template: Copy from Error-FlowStudio-100090.html and customize

Step 8: Update Master Index

File Location:

C:\BizFirstGO_FI_AI\UserGuides\docs\WebSites\ErrorManagement\ErrorCodes\
Index.html

Add new error card to your product section.

Step 9: Commit Your Changes
