Defining the Number of Digits
Decide the number of digits for the incremental part (Digits Number: e.g., 2, 3, or 4 digits). Leave blank for plain numbering.
Below is an example of a configured registration numbering format.
Saving a new Educational Program, registration numbers are generated dynamically based on the prefix and incremental digits.
Note: Registration numbers remain unchanged when a student’s _Grade_ is updated.
