Work Order Naming Convention

Now this is an old request of mine that has long been a little bugbear so I thought I would put it out there now and see if this is something that would benefit others as well or if it's just us!

When processing an order, we work with 5 digit order numbers and often put multiple orders together using the %SELECTED_PROJECT% naming convention variable.


Now when we process orders together, we always seperate jobs with the underscore delimiter, ie. 00000_11111_22222_33333

The problem with the current naming convention, is that when we do multiple jobs together, MV just puts all the numbers together with no underscore, ie. 00000111112222233333

I've tried a few things including &SELECTED_PROJECT%_ but then it just tacks on the underscore at the end of all the selected projects, ie. 00000111112222233333_

If no one knows a solution for this, would it be something we could get implemented somehow? Surely we're not the only ones that process like this?
