Skipping Multiple Characters Using 123Scan ADF

I am trying to remove certain letter prefixes in the bar codes with ADF rules.  Examples of the content of the bar codes are:

  • A123456
  • B234567
  • C345678
  • D456789
  • E567890

I just want to eliminate letters, A, B, C & D but any other letters can stay.  Here are the rules I created so far:

  1. REPLACE ALL PATTERNS <A>with <>
  2. SKIP TO START
  3. REPLACE ALL PATTERNS <B>with <>
  4. SKIP TO START
  5. REPLACE ALL PATTERNS <C>with <>
  6. SKIP TO START
  7. REPLACE ALL PATTERNS <D> with <>
  8. SKIP TO START
  9. SEND ALL THAT REMAINS

In the end, it only successfully eliminated all letter "A" in the scan but the other 4 letters remain.  Can someone please help me with setting up the rules correctly?  Thanks.

Figured it out myself.  Just need multiple rules.  Replace only 1 letter per rule.

Hi Joseph Pang .Are you able to find a solution?

Create two Rules 

First rule with criteria if the first char is A or B or C or D the action will be to skip first char and send all data that remains 
second rule no criteria setup and apply to all barcodes where it will just send data
