Pension records

This is a general question about a pension record and don't know here else to post so I'll try here. In the certificate no. section, if instead of a number, something such as a-8-5-26 is present, what does it mean? I know the numbers indicate a date because the pension app I'm looking at was filed June 21, 1926, but does this mean the app was accepted? Or was it denied?
