    Question Case numbers and Case types

    Hello,

    My name is Roy Morock and this is my first post. I hope someone can help me.

    I am using:
    Sugar CRM Community Edition
    Version 6.0.3 (Build 4339)


    • CASE NUMBERS


    I would like to know, is there away to make the case number a little bit larger? For example right now the case numbers are two didges (66). Is there away to make them maybe 3 didgets? Example 885. Or is there away to make it a RANDOM four to five diget number?

    • CASE TYPES


    At this time the only case types that I have is:

    1. Administrative
    2. User
    3. Product


    Those Case Types came when I installed the software on my server. Is there away that I can add my own types or some how modify what is there?

    Please let me know.

    Thank you in advance!
    Happy New Year!

    The case number is an auto-incremented column. To modify it, change its definition on the backend by executing the following SQL command against your SugarCRM database:

    Code:
    ALTER TABLE cases AUTO_INCREMENT = 885;
    That would change the starting sequence to 885.

    To change the values in the drop down, within Sugar click Admin > Dropdown Editor and modify case_type_dom.
