DESCRIPTION
CVR is a company registration number used in conjuction with VAT handling in Denmark.
If you want to use this module in conjunction please check: Data::FormValidator::Constraints::Business::DK::CVR
SUBROUTINES AND METHODS
validate
The function takes a single argument, a 10 digit CVR number.
The function returns 1 (true) in case of a valid CVR number argument and 0 (false) in case of an invalid CVR number argument.
The validation function goes through the following steps.
Validation of the argument is done using the functions (all described below in detail):
- "_argument" in Business::DK::PO, exported by Business::DK::PO
- "_content" in Business::DK::PO, exported by Business::DK::PO
- "_length"
If the argument is a valid argument the sum is calculated by _calculate_sum based on the argument and the controlcifers array.
The sum returned is checked using a modulus caluculation and based on its validity either 1 or 0 is returned.
generate
Generate is a function which generates valid CVR numbers, it is by no means an authority, since CVRs are generated and distributed by danish tax authorities, but it can be used to generate example CVRs for testing and so on.
PRIVATE FUNCTIONS
_length
This function validates the length of the argument, it dies if the argument does not fit wihtin the boundaries specified by the arguments provided:
The _length function takes the following arguments:
_calculate_sum
This function takes an integer and calculates the sum bases on the the controlcifer array.
EXPORTS
Business::DK::CVR exports on request:
DIAGNOSTICS
The amount requested exceeds the maximum possible valid CVRs 9090908
The number of valid CVRs are limited, so if the user requests a number of CVRs to be generated which exceeds the upper limit, this error is instantiated. See: "generate".
argument: $number has to be $length digits long
If the number in $number does not match the specified length, this error is issued. See: "_length".
