!2 Create a new sequential id/number

This action can be used, to store a tracker specific sequential/consecutive ID/Number in a custom field of the tracker item, that is subject/source of the triggering event.\\
\\
For example: You have a tracker called __Orders__ and you want each Order (item of the __Orders__ tracker), to have a  sequential/consecutive __Order No__.\\
\\
First you define __Order No__ as a custom  __Orders__ field with type __Integer__ (could also be __Text__):\\
\\
\\
[!OrderNoField.png!]\\
\\
\\
Only the __Submitter__ should have __Edit__ permission for the __Order No__ field in the initial order status.\\
\\
\\
Then you associate a __Create a new sequential id/number__ action with the initial state transition (Submit) of __Orders__:\\
\\
\\
[!FillOrderNo.png!]\\
\\
\\
This action has two parameters:
*__Field__ (required) and
*__Prefix__ (optional).
\\
__Field__ is the  custom field of the tracker item, that is subject/source of the triggering event, where the number should be stored.\\
\\
__Prefix__ is an optional prefix for the sequence/number (only if the target field is a Text field).\\
\\
If you specify {{trackerKeyName}} as __Prefix__, then the actual key name of the tracker will be used as prefix.\\
