Counter adding hyphen (9 replies)

Going by the documentation, you can create sequences of "WEB000009019", "WEB000009020"... by setting the Prefix to "WEB", and the total counter length to 12.

I tried to create sequences of "WEB0001", "WEB0002"... by setting the Prefix to "WEB" and the total counter length to 7.

When I did this, the next Counter Sequence is "WEB-0001".  A hyphen appears to have been added which doesn't agree with the documentation.

Randy, I think when you have Evaluate enabled, a hyphen is added automatically.

This, however doesn't occur when you actually call the GetCounterSequence function.

We'll log this for fixing.

Thanks

In this case an evaluate was not checked, I included a screenshot of the datatable.

The first sequence was WEB-0001, but after that it was correct: WEB0002, WEB0003, etc.

I don't think screenshot was added.

Found a better screenshot that may help you to replicate my situation.

I entered in all of the settings you see.  Then I saved the Counter and re-opened it.

This is the view I saw after re-opening.

Randy, try entering the start number as 1.

This is still happening, even when you don't enable "Evaluate".

 

Let me know if you need more details, but I cannot create even a basic counter without this error happening.
