Auto-populating Primary Field with next number in Form
Good evening,
I'm currently creating a form for our client to request new Change Requests. Our change requests have a Primary Field called 'CR Number' and have the following format: 2024-CR182.
I've already created my form, but I omitted the CR Number since I can't auto populate it with the next number, ie 2024-CR183.
Is there a way for the Primary Field to be auto populated either in the form or in the sheet once the form is submitted?
Thanks in advance.

Primary fields need to be text. Can't you create a CR Number field and set it to auto-number? Then you can use prefix on it for 2024, which then you can change next year, of course.
I use this with requests that are is submitted via a form.
