| Start numbering from | • DefaultValue• Vault | Default Value. Start numbering from specified static default value.Vault. Search for objects in vault that match specified grouping conditions and contain this numbering property and start numbering from biggest found value of property. |
| Default value | Integer | Default value to use when version is not set. |
| Increment value | Integer | Increment that will be used when calculating next value. |
| Include deleted objects | Yes/No | Displayed only if Start numbering from = Vault.Include deleted objects when searching for max value in vault. |
| Search timeout (seconds) | Integer | Displayed only if Start numbering from = Vault.Search timeout in seconds. This timeout is applied to search operation that retrieves max value of property from vault. |
| Always search | Yes/No | Always search objects in vault when calculating value. |
| Increment number part | MajorMinorPatch | Semantic number part to increment when calculating next value. |

| Mode | One of the following:• Dynamic value• Static value• Empty value• No action | Dynamic value. If this option is selected, value of placeholders in expression will be calculated from source object.Static value. If this option is selected, property value will be expected to match constant value.Empty value. If this option is selected, property value will be expected to be empty.No action. If this option is selected, no action will be performed. This is invalid state. |
| Dynamic value | Text with placeholders | Displayed only if Dynamic value is selected as Mode.Specifies expected property value using properties from source object. |
