&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Hi rodsstuf,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;Yes, you can start the case number at any specific number.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;However, to do this, you will need to customize the stock Case screens &amp;amp; table. Currently, the case # is based off the Case table&amp;#39;s RecordID. Therefore, to start a case at a specific number, you will need to add a new field in the table to store case #, i.e. CaseNumber. Afterwards, you will need to add a new case record in the table that will have the desired case number. Next, you will have to add some logic/calculations where any new cases will take the last recorded case # and add one to it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p2"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;If you need more assistance implementing this, I can put you in touch with a paid&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="s1"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/training-customization.aspx%22%20%5Ct%20%22_blank"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_4_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/training-customization.aspx"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_11_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span id="mce_12_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/training-customization.aspx"&gt;i&lt;span id="mce_0_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_2_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_9_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_1_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;n-hou&lt;span id="mce_9_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_10_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;se consultant&lt;span id="mce_12_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span id="mce_4_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_2_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="mce_0_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_1_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_11_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;or you could look into our&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.methodintegration.com/Consultants.aspx"&gt;&lt;span class="s1"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_8_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Method Solution Providers&lt;span id="mce_8_end" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;span id="mce_3_start" style="overflow:hidden;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="p1"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
