Also problems in automatic generation of business partner no.

Question

Hello,
I've studied all the entries in the forum concerning automatic BP no. generation, but I am getting
the internal error 8180 with the follwoing script:
if $[ocrd.cardtype] ='S'
begin
select CAST ((MAX (CAST (T0.CardCode AS Numeric)) + 1 ) AS VARCHAR) from [dbo].[ocrd] T0 where T0.cardtype = 'S'
end
else
begin
select CAST ((MAX (CAST (T0.CardCode AS Numeric)) + 1 ) AS VARCHAR) from [dbo].[ocrd] T0 where T0.cardtype != 'S'
end
Our GP Code starts with 2701000000 for customer and leads and 2702000000 for suppliers. Related companies have external numbers like 0009000100 with leading zeros.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance.
Michael

Hello,
finally I've asked a B1 consultant and got the followiong query as solution:
SELECT CAST((MAX(CAST(T0.CardCode as numeric)) + 1) AS varchar) FROM [dbo].[OCRD] T0 WHERE  T0.CardType IN  ((SELECT CASE WHEN $[OCRD.CardType] <> 'S' THEN 'C' ELSE 'S' END)  UNION  (SELECT CASE WHEN $[OCRD.CardType] <> 'S' THEN 'L' ELSE 'S' END))  AND T0.CardCode <> 'a'
