However, they can also be added by means of the Auxiliary Code fields that are available in cards. The information entered in the Auxiliary Code field does not necessarily have to be an existing Auxiliary Code.

Alphanumeric characters can be used to assign the authorization code. Authorization Code definitions are recorded in System Settings module.
