I currently have a sheet that randomly generates an order # when a form is submitted

I’m now creating another tool and imported the sheet that contains all the order numbers, what happened is that the username was imported but not the number…

Is there a way to get the order number saved on the sheet?

It seems you’ve imported a Glide data base in another app, right?

If so, the computed columns won’t import to the new app by now.

So your random number is generated by a computed column?
