What are the Auto Number Widget Properties

Auto Number Widget

The ‘Auto Number’ widget for your workflow can enable the automatic generation of unique numbers. You can use them to create different serial numbers for forms, subforms, etc.

Auto Number Widget—Properties

Type

The Type property has two settings.

  •         Regular – Generates an incrementing number sequence.
  •         Custom – Allows the user to specify the template for the generation of the number sequence.

Template

The Template property defines the template to use for generating numbers.  This property is only displayed when the Type property is set to Custom.

Prefix

The Prefix property on the right panel will help you to include certain characters at the beginning of each auto-generated number. These characters will be common to each number generated.

Postfix

The Postfix property on the right panel will help you to include certain characters at the end of each auto-generated number. These characters will be common to each number generated.

Length

The Length property on the right panel allows you to set the length of the auto-generated number.

Label

You can change the name of the ‘Auto Number’ using a label property. It is ‘Auto Number’ by default. For example, you can keep the label of your Auto Number as ‘Serial Number.’
