          Set Up the Global Auto-Number Generator Function

          Set Up the Global Auto-Number Generator Function

          If you plan to use Vlocity's auto-number generator function as part of your custom numbers, you must add it to Custom Settings.

          1. On the Setup page, go to Custom Settings.
          2. Click Global Auto Number Setting > Manage.
          3. Next to GlobalAutoNumber, click Edit.
          4. Review and if needed enter new values into the following fields:
            • Name

              Leave the name GlobalAutoNumber.

            • Increment

              The integer by which you want Vlocity to increment its auto-generated numbers.

            • LastGeneratedNumber

              Enter the number you want Vlocity to use to start auto-generating numbers.

            • LeftPad

              The digit or letter you want Vlocity to use to pad numbers that are shorter than the Minimum Length.

            • Minimum Length

              The minimum length of auto-generated numbers.

            • Prefix

              Any prefix you want to add before the auto-generated number.

            • Separator

              A character you want to separate the prefix from the number. Leave this field blank if you don't want to add a separator.

          5. Click Save.

          As an example, if you set the GlobalAutoNumber settings like this:

          • Name:GlobalAutoNumber.

          • Increment: 1

          • LastGeneratedNumber: 27

          • LeftPad: 0

          • Minimum Length: 6

          • Prefix: VL

          • Separator: -

          The next number Vlocity generates is VL-000028.
