Serial Number

This feature allows you to set up sequences that are automatically assigned when data is saved.In the Prefix field, you can register a date or a specific code value, and you can set it to be a random number or a consecutive number.

When saving new data, the assigned sequence number will be automatically assigned according to the connected sequence, and the value will be entered.

  • How-To Create
  1. Select the Utility > Serial Code menu in the Object Explorer.

  2. Click on New button in the Serial Number List to register a new Serial Number.

  3. The Sequence Type can be chosen between Random and Sequential.

    INFO

    Random generates numbers randomly, while Sequential generates numbers sequentially.

    INFO

    When Sequence Type is selected as Sequential, the Allow Rotation field that allows you to specify whether to rotate is activated next to the Serial Infix input field.

    INFO

    If Allow Location is YES, the numbering is cycled and the numbering starts again from the beginning after all numbers are numbered. If Allow Location is No, it is non-cyclic and the numbering ends after all numbers are numbered.

  4. The number of digits generated is determined by Sequence Length.

  5. Click the Rule List “New” button to set the sequence setting rule registered in the Serial Number.

    Details

    The available Rule Codes for input are YY, YYYY, MM, DD, and CODE. Depending on the order in which they are entered, the assigned values will vary.


    Details

    For the Sequence Id registered with the date 2023-12-07, the values generated would be Add23120701 to Add23120799.


    Details

    When Serial Number is specified in the Property of a Form component or List's Inline Editor Control, it is triggered by the new save service and used accordingly.


    WARNING

    When you specify the Sequence Type as Sequential, a warning message is displayed below.(※ When generating serial numbers sequentially, duplicates may occur. Avoid using this in scenarios where serial number generation occurs frequently.)
