To get the generic PCID use the GetGenericID(); function.

[Stephen]

Thanks.

[Jason]

I'm not sure you know what generics are.

[Kantanomo]

I'm not sure you know what generics are.

ge·ner·ic

Characteristic of or relating to a class or group of things; not specific
- chèvre is a generic term for all goat's milk cheese

[Jason]

Exactly, and I see no generics used in that code
