Jotform Card layout: How to add date and other fields to generate a unique ID?

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A FIELD TICKET NUMBER ON A FORM IN THIS FORMAT. 20240612 01 6 DATE, EMPLOYEE NUMBER, JOB NUMBER. I HAVE ALL OF THIS HIDDEN ON THEIR FORM AND THE JOB NUMBER AUTOMATICALLY INCREASES BY ONE. I'M HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THIS NUMBER TO APPEAR IN ONE FIELD USING CONDITION FORMATTING. I'M ABLE TO GET THE EMPLOYEE NUMBER AND JOB NUMBER BUT WHEN I ADD THE DATE IT'S NOT RIGHT. THE DATE COMES UP IN THIS FORMAT 19887.

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I understand the issue, but I’ll need a bit of time to work out a solution. I’ll get back to you shortly.

We really appreciate your patience and understanding while we’re looking into this.

ANY LUCK?

IT CAN BE A DATE BOX THEN TO THE RIGHT EMPLOYEE NUMBER AND JOB NUMBER. I'M JUST HAVING TROUBLE MAKING IT LOOK CLEAN.

Hi Kyle,

We can use the Form Calculation widget to combine other fields' data into one. Let me show you how to do that:

1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Element button on the left.
2. Under the Widgets tab, select the Form Calculation widget to add it to your form.
3. Next, click on the widget's Wand icon, and use the Add Field button to add fields, and spaces using your keyboard to add separators.
   

While doing so, please ensure that the fields and spaces are added as Strings by clicking on them until it shows as gray, or A-Z.

This is how it would work:

Feel free to test this cloned demo form or clone it to your account to inspect it further.

Let us know if you need any help.

ITS SAYING I DONT HAVE ACCESS TO CLONE THIS. CAN YOU PLEASE PROVIDE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!

Hi Kyle,

Can you try cloning this form instead? Let me show you How to Clone an Existing Form:

1. Open your My Forms page and click on Create Form on the left side of the page.

2. In the window that opens up, click on Import Form. 

3. In the next window, click on From a Webpage. 

4. Paste the form link into the Enter URL field and click on Create Form.

After cloning your form, it will open up in Form Builder automatically. Now, you can edit the way you want it and publish it.

Give it a try and let us know if you need any more help.
