Setting auto number for tables which are extended from task table

[SNow35]

Hi All,

I have a custom table which has a different number field and it is extended to task table. when ever a ticket is created the number is auto generated but when I search using that number it doesnot get populated. The actual number is stored in task table how do I change this.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Shugufta.

Hello   Naresh,

Hi Naresh,

When ever you extend your custom table to task table, you need to configure your number field variable instead of creating a new field. When you configure your variable it creates a dictionary override which means the display value would be different but backend value would be the same.

The below field is my custom table number field display value which is extended to task table. So initially after the table is created I put the number value of task table on my custom table after that I right clicked(shown as below) on the number value and clicked on configure label changing just the label and click on insert instead of update or save.
