I was involved in project using Microsoft Dynamics 365 V8.2. I downloaded the auto number solution, one available for Dynamics CRM 2016 and previous releases. This solution was working fine on previous versions but on Dynamics 365 V8.2, there was error using this solution. I searched and tried to find some alternatives but was not able to find any one. So I thought to develop my own Auto-Number utility / solution for Microsoft Dynamics 365 V8.2.
Below are screen shots for the entity holding configurations for auto number.
At this time Auto No Length is fixed to 5. I will make that dynamic later. Below are details of configuration
Name: Put whatever name you want
Auto No Length: Put 5 (Fix at this time)
Auto No Value: Put value from where you want auto no to increment (First number is 0)
Entity Name: Name of entity
Mapping Field: Field schema name which will hold the auto number value
Prefix / Sufix: Will update in next versions
Zero Pad: Currently zeros are displayed with length of 5 i.e. for number 1 four zeros will be added. This is not changeable int current version
Currently Plugin is also not dynamic (Based on configuration value to fire plugin). Customization Consultant / Developer has to manually register plugin for desired entity and message.
Below is plugin step screen shot.
This is Auto No Solution for Dynamics 365 V8.2 (Uploading soon....)
