 This configuration module permits you to define different increment counters with a prefix for fields in modules and then apply them with conditions using workflows. It will permit you to have various counter/increment fields on any module or increment differently the same field depending on values in the record being saved.

-===== Number formatting=====
+===== Install =====
-El formato acepta dos formas:
+Once you have installed the module normally using module manager, you will see that it adds a new function to the workflow system:
-.- número de números
+**AutoNumberInc(ANPid)**
-una cadena de números con el número de números que quieres que aparezcan en el contador, por ejemplo, con 000001 obtendrás la secuencia:
-, 000002,..., 000022, 000023, ...000101,...010001....  siempre con 6 números en el contador
+You can now use this function in an Update Field workflow task to assign the next counter value to any field based on any condition in the module.
-.- Fecha/Número
+{{ :en:extensions:extensions:autoincmodule:anpwf.png |}}
-Un formato avanzado que acepta cualquier letra de conversión de fecha y la cadena %u para el número.
-http://php.net/manual/es/function.date.php
+The **ANPid** number is the internal CRMID of the record or the value of the Increment field you want to use for the sequence. This number can be found by looking in the URL of the Detail View of the record.
-la cadena %u acepta el formato de sprintf por lo que si quieres tener los mismos 6 números del ejemplo anterior sería:
+{{ :en:extensions:extensions:autoincmodule:anpid.png |}}
+===== Number formatting=====
-%'.06u
+The format field accepts three forms:
-Si quisieras poner el año en el formato anterior, sería:
+.- Number\\
+A string of numbers that indicate both the number of characters and the actual counter that must appear in the result. This is the same as the default behavior you can find in the autonumber in **Settings**. For example, with 000001 you will get the sequence:
-Y-\%'.06\u
+, 000002,..., 000022, 000023, ...000101,...010001....  always with 6 numbers in the counter
-lo que te daría la secuencia
+.- Date/Number\\
+An advanced format that accepts any [[http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php|PHP supported date conversion letter]] and the special string **%u** for the number.
+The string **%u** accepts the [[http://php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php|PHP sprintf format]]. So to obtain the same sequence as in point 1 above you would use:
+<code>%'.06u</code>
+If you want to put the current year followed by the previous 6 number format you would use:
+<code>Y-\%'.06\u</code>
+which would produce the sequence:
 -000001, 2015-000002,..., 2015-000022, 2015-000023, ...2015-000101,...2015-010001....
+.- Workflow Expression
+If you activate the "Workflow Expression" checkbox then we will parse the format string through sprintf in order to put the correct number in place and then pass the result to the workflow expression engine with the context of the record triggering the workflow. This will permit you to use any of the workflow expression functions to construct complex formatting combinations.
+For example, you could have an expression like
+<code>concat(format_date('y'), '-', duedate)</code>
+or
+<code>concat(duedate, '-%'.06u')</code>
+This is a real example from a coreBOS install:
+<code>concat(format_date(get_date('now'),'ym'), '_', $(code_shop : (cbShop) code_shop) , '_%'.04u')</code>
