In Sage CRM, the reference number in Order and Quote entity is auto populated and ready <\/span>only field where the value in viewed only when you save the record. By default the format is <\/span>“ORD-#O\/#N” where ORD is constant, #O is the opportunity id and #N is the incremental number. <\/span><\/span>Like all good practices, Sage CRM has made this format configurable to the administrator. To make changes to this format you need to access Administration -> Data Management -> Products under the Product Configuration tab <\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However the formatting options are not documented but we have retrieved some of them which we have tried and tested. I am listing it down for your reference.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

#O = Opportunity Id
<\/span>#N = Next order number for opportunity
<\/span>#D = Day
<\/span>#M = Month
<\/span>#Y = Year
<\/span>#U – Current logged on user as an ID
#L – Current logged on user as a string
<\/span>#C – Current logged on Team as an ID.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

So a format string “SO-#Y\/#O\/#N” will produce references like “SO-11\/102\/1” where 11 is the year and 102 is the opportunity ID.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you get your hands on more formatting options then feel free to share.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n
