ID generation logic for custom business objects

[Former Member]

Hello guys,
is it possible to set up ID generation logic for custom business objects in SAP Marketing Cloud? We have created new object and we want their ID created automaticly in predefinied format (e.g. 870001). Is there a standard way to set it up?

Thank you for your help.

Hello Saurabh,

A few weeks ago I was solving similar issue and my answer is, unfortunately, it is not possible. But the solution is pretty easy. You just create your own generation logic in your newly created business object. In my blog, you will find complete step-by-step solution with the example of code so you can do it even without developer skills. If you would need help, just contact me.
