Formulas to create project IDs

We’re struggling to create unique project identity numbers that will mirror through out a project from quote stage to job stage. I’m wondering if formulas can do that? It would need a text prefix that can be determined by client, and a number that can be determined by the date or client number, plus one or two etc if more than one job comes in.

Hi @Juliaedn

Welcome to the community. This can’t be done with the use of formulas. The good news is that there is a marketplace app that does this. It can be found at https://monday.com/marketplace/17. A version for subitem numbering is also available (marketplace listing under review). More info at: 15|AutoID Subitems - Excellent Team
