2,397Hi, I am working on a simple auto numbering plugin for case number on case entity. The format should be "yyyymmxxxx" and xxxx is the incremental number. I am wondering how to handle the concurrency, for example, when multiple users generate case number at the same time. I attached the sample code as below:
IPluginExecutionContext context = localContext.PluginExecutionContext;
IOrganizationService service = localContext.OrganizationService;
int maxNumber;
if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") &&
context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)
{
Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
if (entity.LogicalName == "incident")
{
if (entity.Attributes.Contains("caseid") == false)
{
string fetchxml = @"<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' distinct='false' mapping='logical'>
<entity name='incident'>
<attribute name='caseid'/>
</entity>
</fetch>";
EntityCollection ec = service.RetrieveMultiple(new FetchExpression(fetchxml));
List<int> list = new List<int>();
foreach (var c in ec.Entities)
{
if (c.Attributes.ContainsKey("caseid"))
{
list.Add(int.Parse(c.Attributes["caseid"].ToString()));
}
}
maxNumber = list.Max();
entity.Attributes.Add("caseid", Autonumbering(maxNumber));
}
}
}
private string Autonumbering(int caseNumber)
{
string caseid = string.Empty;
string year = DateTime.Now.Year.ToString();
string month = DateTime.Now.ToString("MM");
if (year == caseNumber.ToString().Substring(0, 4))
{
if (month == caseNumber.ToString().Substring(4, 2))
{
caseid = year + month + (caseNumber + 1).ToString().Substring(6, 4);
}
else
{
caseid = year + month + "0001";
}
}
else
{
caseid = year + month + "0001";
}
return caseid;
}
