Hi @Pravin Yadav ,

To Add auto-numbering records in a table :

1. Navigate to All > System Definition > Number Maintenance.
2. Click a table name to view the number record for that table, or click New.
3. Define the number format by completing the fields (see table).
4. Click Submit or Update.
   If an auto-numbered field does not already exist, a new field is automatically created on the table with the following values:

   • Label: Number
   • Name: u_number
   • Default value:

     javascript:getNextObjNumberPadded();

     Note: This script renumbers records when the Number of digits is updated. To use a script that does not renumber records when the Number of digits is updated, open the dictionary entry for the Number field and enter the following script in the Default value field.

     javascript:getNextObjNumber();
