How do i create auto generated number for every new record adding to my table. The data comes in from pipedrive when it hits the “Quote” Stage (have i got this working fine)

Hi ​@adi Group,

We're looking forward to your response.

​@JammerS I haven't quite managed to do it yet, I would like a starting point of Q500000, but it is just referencing the record ID which is a large string of text/ numbers. How do i set the starting quote and then with each new record it adds +1 to the last /Q number issued?

Hi ​@adi Group,

 

You can create a sequential numbering system in Zapier starting from a custom value like "Q500000" by using a Google Sheet as a number tracker. Start by storing the current highest number in a cell. When a new record is triggered (for example, via form submission), your Zap retrieves the current number, increments it using the Formatter tool, updates the sheet with the new value, and then uses the new number to create the record. Be mindful of potential concurrency issues if multiple records are created at once, and consider adding error handling to ensure data stays consistent.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further assistance. We're here to help.
