Quotation Number Format
Define your format using dynamic placeholders:
| Placeholder | Description |
|---|---|
{year} | Current year (e.g., 2025) |
{month} | Current month (e.g., 07) |
{serial} | Simple incrementing number |
{2_digit_serial} | Two-digit serial (01) |
{3_digit_serial} | Three-digit serial (001) |
{4_digit_serial} | Four-digit serial (0001) |
{5_digit_serial} | Five-digit serial (00001) |
{6_digit_serial} | Six-digit serial (000001) |
Example Format:QT-{year}-{month}-{4_digit_serial}
This will generate quotation numbers like QT-2025-07-0001.
