Automatic code generation

Dear all,

We’re going to use kobo as a database - colleagues will fulfil the form contains information about beneficiaries so then we will maintain it in kobo - and I have the following question: is it possible to make automatic unique code generation for each response (which means for each beneficiary in our case)?
Thanks in advance,
Tania

Inorder not to have changebale index for the edited surveys you can use
for calculation : concat( substring-before(${enumerator}, “_”), “-”, format-date-time(${start}, ‘%y%m%d%H%M%S’) )
while i made made ${enumerator} list in choices like this
name Label
JS_John_Smith for John Smith
HK_Harry_Kein for Harry Kein
