How to Configure Auto Number Length for Formula - Based Item Names?

In this tutorial, we’ll demonstrate how to automatically generate item names in Logic ERP using the Auto Number Length setting.

Accessing Configuration Settings

• Navigate to: Setups/Setup Items and then click on "Setup Items Multiple Packs/Sizes".

• Click on the Configuration.

• Under the Configuration Options - 1 tab.

• Locate the option labeled as

“Auto No. Length”.

Configure Auto Number Length

• Set the Auto No. Length to 3.

• Define the Item Name Generation using “Item Name Formula + 1”.

This ensures that all auto-generated numbers follow a uniform 3-digit format (e.g., 001, 002, 003).

Review the Item Name Formula

• The formula here is designed to generate item names using:

  • Category + Fabric + 3-digit Auto Increment Number.

• The sequence will continue only for items created under the same category and fabric.

• If a different category or fabric is selected, the sequence resets and starts from 001 again.

Create New Items

• Create a new item with a defined category and fabric.

  • The system generates the item name automatically based on the formula.

  • The number appears in a 3-digit sequence with leading zeros.

• Save the item.

• Create another item with the same category and fabric.

  • The auto number increments sequentially (e.g., 002, 003, etc.).

Key Takeaway

• Auto No. Length ensures numbering consistency in item names.

• Item Name Formula provides flexibility by combining fields (e.g., category, fabric) with auto-increment numbers.

• The sequence resets when a different category/fabric is selected.

This setup helps maintain structured, consistent, and error-free item names in Logic ERP.
