Numbering Scheme - 000.000.000 up to 999.999.999

Hi,

 

How is it possible to define a numbering scheme that allows us to use sequential numbering up to 999.999.999 while using "." every 3 digits for better readability?

 

We also want to add .XX for Work in Progress and .01 - .99 for revisions

So for example 123.456.789.XX

 

We cannot get this to work because the auto-generated sequence does not seem to have an option to "interrupt" the numbering every 3 digits.

 

Thank you very much!

 

Best regards

No experience, but can't you create 4 seperate fields?

Yes, but only one field can increment by itself. The other fields would have to be entered manually.

For more intricate solutions you will probably need to set a custom numbering scheme in SQL at the ADMS (see post below and research further into how numbers could be broken down with periods or how multiple fields could act as a single number):
