ID Generator Field Counter change by year

 
1
0
-1

Hi,

 I have used ID Generator Field for to generate reference id for my apps and used environment variable name to call counter. My reference id number has year ex : 2016011.

Is it possible to reset back to 1 when year change to 2017. I want it start again 2017001 not 2017012.

 

Thanks.

        yes. i already used hash variable. But how to reset back to 1 (ex:2017001) automatic by system when year changed.

          Once the year changes, the counter will be reset because it is essentially using a different env variable name.

        Hi, you could try to use the Hash Variable#DateHashVariable in your environment variable eg 

        Environment Variable Name: ref-#date.yyyy#
        Format: #date.yyyy#???
