Custom Search for changed incident padding

[apoorvaagar]

Hi All,

I have a requirement that currently the padding for Incident table was changed from 7 to 9, now the incident numbers have been updated (INC0XXXXXXXX) and the incidents with old numbering format (INCXXXXXXXX) cannot be found. I want to create a search method through which I can look for the incident number with the previous format as well as the new one.

Please share your inputs on the above requirement!

Hi @SumanthDosapati,

Thank you for your response.

But my question is different, the incident numbers are already updated as per the new prefix, now I want that the incident should be searchable by the previous number format as well as the new format after updated padding.

Please share your inputs on this!

Thank you.
