FTR someone had published this extension a long time ago: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Unique+Identification+N... I don’t know its state and I’ve never used it though. Thanks -Vincent

Hello,
I work in a hospital information department, and we provide data to many people within the organisation. I would like to create a list of requests from users for data. Ideally, it would be very helpful if we could assign each record a number or ID that we can use elsewhere, e.g. in the SQL queries that we write, so that it is easy to go back to the details of a request. We could do this manually, but that is obviously prone to error.
The example in the issue Marius linked to would be ideal, if that were possible in future.
Kind regards,
Xavier

Hello,
I am a new user of XWiki and am just starting to explore its functionality. I've searched for an answer this question but haven't found anything yet.
I have created an application (which allows me to record details of requests received from other parts of my organisation), and have entries displayed in a livetable. Is there a way of adding a counter or unique ID field to the application and livetable display? This would make it much easier to refer back and find entries. I can't see a "doc." property that would enable me to do this.
Many thanks in advance for any assistance.
As Marius said, there’s no counter. However you could use the page full name as the unique id (don’t know what your needs are though).
Thanks -Vincent
