How to generate an order number or unique id for each response?

You can use the SEQUENCE() function to generate an order number that is auto incremented by 1 or concatenate it with a text to generate a unique order id.

You can use the SEQUENCE() function to generate an order number that is auto incremented by 1 or concatenate it with a text to generate a unique order id.
Step 1: Add a short answer question in Google Forms.
Step 2: Click on the Addon icon > Select Neartail > Select Customize this form > Click on the Customize button.
In the Neartail customize interface, click on the ⚙️icon next to the short answer question for order id.
Step 3: Field settings screen will be displayed. Select the "Answer" tab and write the formula to generate the order number.

Use SEQUENCE function to generate order number

SEQUENCE function generates a number that is auto incremented by 1 for each response. If you would like the order number to start from 10001, then you can add the below formula in the calculate option:

10000 + sequence()

Please note that the order number is generated when the user starts filling the form and not when the user submits the form. Hence the order number for the submitted orders may not be sequence. The missing sequence represents the orders that were abandoned by the users.

You can also add a text identifier to generate an order id instead of just a number. For example, you can append "NT" with the order number to generate a unique order id such as NT10001 etc. The formula for generating this order id would be as follows:

"NT" + (10000 + sequence())

Step 4: Write the sequence formula in the Calculate option as shown below to generate an order number.
You can also concatenate text to generate a unique order id as shown below.
