About this column
This column is where the numerical value assigned to the volume within a series is provided. A volume is an optional grouping of a season (e.g. Season 1 Volume 1). This number is used to determine the order in which the volume should be place against other volumes within the series.
Any alphanumeric value can be used in this column.
Example:
| SeriesTitleDisplayUnlimited | SeasonNumber | DistributionNumber | EpisodeNumber |
|---|---|---|---|
| My Favorite Show | 2 | V1 | 6 |
| My Favorite Show | 2 | V1 | 7 |
If distribution numbers are used to delineate season volumes, then it is necessary to use a different SeasonContentID in order to have separate season volume containers on the storefront.
Example:
| SeriesTitleDisplayUnlimited | SeasonNumber | DistributionNumber | SeasonContentID |
|---|---|---|---|
| My Favorite Show | 2 | V1 | mfs_s2_v1 |
| My Favorite Show | 2 | V2 | mfs_s2_v2 |
Best Practices
