Function: RedactBankNumber
The RedactBankNumber function is a Redaction function that can be used in calculated field expressions.
Description
RedactBankNumber replaces numeric characters with random digits, but adjusted so that the resulting number still looks like a bank number but has an incorrect Luhn algorithm check digit. (A Luhn algorithm is used to validate a variety of identification numbers, such as credit card numbers, IMEI numbers, National Provider Identifier numbers in US and Canadian Social Insurance Numbers.)

If CreditCardNo = 5610-5910-8101-8250, the result can be something like: 5022-1016-2906-5179.
