Reference Numbering

Specify how the Form will be automatically assigned a reference number by the system both as a Draft and once it has been Issued.

The next reference number is generated by looking up the previous reference number that matches the format described here, and then increasing the number by one. If you specify the number format to be the same as for another Form type, the numbering will not be unique. If you are using the Form type only within one company, you may prefer to un-toggle from which includes the code of the company who sent the Form in the Reference Number, e.g. GEN:DEM-PC#0001, where DEM is the "from" company.

WARNING

Once the form has been created and submitted this configuration cannot be changed.   It is important to get this right prior to any form being created and submitted.
