Formula for unique job number

lauren.green

Is there a formula I can use to create a unique job number where the prefix is the last two numbers of the year created (i.e. 23-0001 for 2023 and 24-0001 for when it is 2024)? If preferable, can this be done in a formula rather than needing a column for the date created, auto number etc etc. Thanks!

Hello @lauren.green

Don't sell short the #Auto Number Column Type. For your purposes, I think it's optimal. check out my screen shots. I hope they explain how I replicated your request.

Good Luck!
