Seperate Auto Numbering Based on Area Column

Samantha McDonald

I have an auto number column which I know goes from 1-100 etc. I have projects in Locations North, South, East and West. Is there a way I can auto number based on each location so East is sequential, North is sequential, etc. By using the below formula it works fine but I end up with North 15 when it might be the 15th row entry but only the 2nd project in the North.

Hope that makes sense!

="ME_" + REGION@row + "_ALL_24_" + [AUTO NUMBER]

ME_NORTH_ALL_24_01

Try something like this instead:

="ME_" + REGION@row + "_ALL_24_" + RIGHT("00" + COUNTIFS(Region:Region, @cell = Region@row, [Auto Number]:[Auto Number], @cell<= [Auto Number]@row), 3)
