How to configure

To configure the generator:

1. From the Link To dropdown list, select the other columns to link to the current column. You can only select columns that also use the Sequential Integer generator.

2. In the Starting Point field, type the number to use as the starting point. By default, the starting point is 0. This means that the column value in the first processed row is 0. The value in the next processed row is 1. The generator continues to increment the value by 1 in each row that it processes.

3. If Structural data encryption is enabled, then to use it for this column, toggle Use data encryption process to the on position.
