PARS sequences are only used by BorderConnect's PARS Checking software, so it is not recommended to enter them if the user does not subscribe to that service.

Add PARS Sequence Button: Adds a PARS sequence to the driver profile. Clicking this button opens a separate screen where the sequence can be entered. The user must select the Carrier Code for the sequence, the PARS position, the first value, and the last value. Select MIDDLE/VISIBLE if the word PARS is part of the PARS numbers in the sequence. Otherwise, select TOP/HIDDEN or BOTTOM/HIDDEN. There cannot be more than 100 PARS numbers in the sequence. After these values have been entered, click Save to add the PARS sequence to the driver profile and return to the Driver Details Page.
