Operation of Get Next Number step

  • Hi all,
    Im curious to know if someone could provide a general idea of how the Get Next Number Step works. It is in the INTEGRATION > INTERNAL SERVICES > IDGeneration steps.

  • Hello,
    In v7, Decisions uses database sequences for the Entity ID service. With this each prefix gets a sequence created in the SQL Server for it. Using the Get Next Number step, allows the user to ask the SQL server to increment the value of the sequence and return that new value. The SQL Server ensures the prevention of duplicate values being returned.
