Auto sequential numbering even after moving rows
Hi everyone, I am looking to have a auto sequential number column that keeps sequential numbers even after moving the rows.
For example before moving the rows:
After moving the first row to the bottom, I would like to have the numbers to still be sequentially ordered in the Auto Number column:
I have looked at solutions posted in the past but they all rely on you not moving the first row. In my case, I will need to shift the first row around. Was wondering if anyone has any idea how I can approach this? Thanks!

Well you are not going to be able to do it in your auto number column. You will need to add one additional column. The formula is:
=MATCH([Row ID]@row, [Row ID]:[Row ID], 0)
Now you can move around your rows as much as you want.
