Automatic creation of a continuous number based on the ID

Hi,

 

Add a calculated value control to the form and configure it as per the screen shot.  Take note of the recalculate settings for the different modes.

Many thanks for the quick help.
It works partly because the ID is only shown to me after I have created a new item and then go back to edit and save the item.
Is there a way at Nintex how I can get the ID/a sequential number displayed when I create a new item?
Currently it looks like this when I click on New Item:

 

 

Hi,

What you are seeing is expected behavior. If the item has not been created then there will be no item ID for the current item.
You could look up the previous ID and then add 1 to it and display that on your form in only calculate on new mode. The only issue there is if multiple people submit at the same time they will all get the same previous Item ID.

Here is a KB on how to retrieve a value from the previous item. https://community.nintex.com/t5/How-To-s/How-to-get-the-value-from-the-previous-list-item-to-pull-into-my/ta-p/89680
