I’ve attached a set of instructions on how to build a custom number for a SP list using a workflow. Â This was in response to an issue Prakesh Patel is trying to figure out. Â I’m attaching the instructions with screenshots.

Document ID is another often overlooked feature that might help here, depending on what the actual requirements are. It lets you define a prefix, but you don’t have control over the rest of the ID.

Can you elaborate on this?
This is great info. I need to build my own numbering system in SharePoint. For example, we have policies that I want to start with POL and procedures that I want to start with PRO, forms that I want to start with FRM etc. Is this possible?
