    Year ticket open-provider name-ticket number

    17-Gov-14985

    [custom ticket id] = formula text field

    [year]&"-"&[provider name]&"-"&[ticket number]

    Set as Key field in field list.

    If not all three are provided or imported, you risk QB sending you a duplicate key field error message.

    So I have a date field that is Today's Date. How do I just make it so the Year of the date field shows?

    [year] = formula number field

    Year([date])


    So here is the whole formula :

    Year([date field])&"-"&[provider name]&"-"&[ticket number]

    If your date is actual a date time field, do this:

    Year(ToDate([date field]))&"-"&[provider name]&"-"&[ticket number]
