We changed the Autonumber Type of the Account Number field in the Account table.

It was a custom with a SEQNUM and some TRALING RANDOM STRING.

We changed it to a String Prefixed Number, set the string, set the min characters and the seed.

HOWEVER, when adding a new account that field doesn't autonumber for us.  When we try to save a new account it says that field is required asking us to enter text manually.  Why?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi crham,

    Make the column required property optional

    Publish the table. It should be resolved.
