We are using batch id's for registering cases. Lets say for example a batch
id is 15003. When registering a new batch, a new batch id should be given;
15004. Is it possible to validate this? So you can assure that a new unique
number is used? Than you need to have the information of the previous
registered case.
Or is this only possible when you are already within a case? (and you can
safe the data to the case itself)
Hello Annegreet,
It is possible to make this happen using the User Case feature that you can
read about here
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/User+Case. Note that
the running counter would be unique per user only.
Hope this helps,
Kriti
