To define the attribute that will use a generated sequence number definition.
In the Feature bar, right-click the desired repository, select Manage Model, then select Profile.
Click the Next button.
Select New from the Action drop-down list (or select an existing field and select Edit).
Select the Common Attribute of “Sequence” and that field will use the repository’s sequence definition to get the next sequential value if the field is blank when the record is saved.
