CRM 5 Auto number plug-in

Hi All, I was working in a lot of CRM 2011 deployment that would require auto counting / auto numbering functionality. However out of box CRM only support limited entities and the format are fixed. In addition you cannot modify the number, it always start at 1000.

To overcome this issue, I have created a simple solution and make it available to everyone. You can configure it in 3 easy steps
  1. installs the solution file 
  2. configure the counter setting 
  3. register the steps in plug-in Source code

Solution file and installation instruction can be find in http://crm2011counter.codeplex.com/ Ps: It was tested and working on CRM online and on premises environment.
