Hi @Drrickryp  Thanks for Replying.

I tried this but unfortunately it is giving me some error. It would be great if you could help me to solve this.

If(Form1.Mode=FormMode.New,Right(Concatenate("000000",First(Sort('SRD data','Process ID',Descending)).'Process ID'+1),6))
Getting error on Concatenate and First in the code.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Harpreet_Tohra 

We need to wrap First(Sort(... in Text( to convert it to a text value that can be concatenated.  Try this

With(
    {
        newID: Right(
            Concatenate(
                "000000",
                Text(
                    First(
                        Sort(
                            'SRD data',
                            'Process ID',
                            Descending
                        )
                    ).'Process ID' + 1,
                    "######"
                )
            ),
            6
        )
    },
    If(
        IsBlank(Parent.Default),
        newID,
        Parent.Default
    )
)

Or get rid of the Concatenate and just use

With(
    {
      newID: Right(
                   "000000" & First(
                                     Sort(
                                          'SRD data','Process ID',Descending
                                      )
                               ).'Process ID' + 1,
                     6
               )
    },
    If(
        IsBlank(Parent.Default),
        newID,
        Parent.Default
    )
)

If the form is New, Parent.Default will be blank.  This formula can be used for the Default value of a textbox control in the 'Process ID' card or as the Update property of the card.  I would either hide this card or make it disabled so users can't change it.
