    • Start date - The date the codes should be active from.

    • End date - The date the codes should be deactivated. This is 00:01am of the day selected, if the voucher is to be used on the last day, then the day after should be selected.

    • Code length - The length of the unique section of the code, the prefix is in addition to this length. This should be in line with the prefixes defined in Aztec. Example: Prefix of ABC+5 unique Characters = total length of 8.
