If that's the case you may consider CREATE SEQUENCE in your sql database and use set fields from sql to populate the unique key :)

Subject: Re: System Generated Field Value


Hi frank,
Thanks for the explanation.I have tested this field, it is generating the
values similar to instance ID, but i need the values in a format similar to
the request ID.
Is there any way to do it without involving workflows?

Regards,
Gopal
