2. In the floating toolbar, tap Edit.

4. Select Numbering.
5. Set the field name and confirm to finish creation.

Success Criteria

• The new Numbering field appears in the table header.
• The field is ready to display numbering results for new records.

Tips While Using

• The Numbering field is used for system-generated numbering.
• On mobile, custom numbering rules and formats are not available.

2. Generate numbers automatically

Entry: Add a new record to generate the number automatically

1. Add a new record in a table that already contains a Numbering field.
2. WPS automatically generates a number in that field.
3. When you continue adding records, the numbers increase in sequence.
4. If a record is deleted, a number that has already been used is not recycled.

Success Criteria

• Every new record receives its own number.
• Later records continue increasing without duplicating existing numbers.

Tips While Using

• Generated numbers cannot be edited manually.
• If you want to review records by number order, you can sort by the Numbering field, but the numbering itself is not reassigned.
