I am looking for sequential and a fixed portion at the front. I checked out the link you have here, my only issue is i'm not to great with coding. I'm not 100% sure on where I am suppose to input that code that was posted.</p> <p>Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/continuously-cycling-order-s#post-121795 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 17:12:14 +0000 Chris Hajer 121795@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>When you say cycling up, do you mean sequential order numbers? And in addition you want a fixed portion at the beginning of the order number?</p> <p>The entry ID is always ascending, but it is sequential across all forms. It is guaranteed unique across all forms, but there will be gaps in the numbers if there is more than one form in use.</p> <p>Take a look at this user's post for one way to do it using gform_pre_render and gform_field_value_$parameter_name <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/gravity-form-incremental-id-generation#post-95412" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/gravity-form-incremental-id-generation#post-95412</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/continuously-cycling-order-s#post-121037 Sun, 13 Jan 2013 20:24:13 +0000 daveweightman 121037@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a client that is looking for the option of having a continuously cycling order number for corresponding orders. The other thing that they are hoping for to go along with this is the option to have a static option in front of the cycling numbers: ie. IPP014xxx The "IPP014" being static and the "xxx" being continually cycling up.</p> <p>Any help would be great as I'm new to gravity forms.<br /> Thanks </p>
