Auto Number solution

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 144

Currently we are using CeledonAutoNumber solution and it works great but 
on one entite we have the need to have two conditions to generate next number.

Is there any similar solution that can support this request? 

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Davor,

    1. Currently we can create OOB auto number field in PowerApps.

    So an alternative solution is that you could create a custom entity that can be used for all numbering purposes,

    for each unique sequence, create a field of type Autonumber and define numbering format,

    then trigger a workflow to update text field of main entity.

    In workflow, we can set multiple conditions to excute different steps.

    Please take article below as reference for more details:

    2. The second method is still by adding a Auto Number Generation entity and running a workflow to achieve auto numbering requirement.

    Hi Davor,

    You can do it in celedon autonumbering itself. 

    • Create an option set in the entity which you need the auto number. Add 2 types as options
    • create 2 autonumber configuration records like below with different conditional value. You have to specify the exact field name in conditional option set.
    • While creating the record set this option set value based on the logic. So based on option set value autonumber will be generated
