Auto Incrementing Pack Number in Receipt Entry as Receipt

My company would like to use the Pack Num field in Receipt Entry as an auto incrementing receipt number whenever we are receiving in items. We want this number to generate and autofill the field.

I’m having a hard time coming up with the best way to approach this. If needed we can use a UD field to store this data but since the Pack Num is required and not all our customers give us one we thought we could use that field as a replacement to a receipt number instead.

Does anyone have any tips or insight on how to do this in Kinetic? Are there better options for this in general we aren’t aware of?

Make sure your Finance department signs off on this… the PackNum in Receipt Entry is part of the three-way match of PO/Receipt/Supplier Invoice. If that is broken, they can’t verify which receipt matches up with which PO and supplier invoice.
