What are Sequencer Formats?
Sequencer formats set how call numbers, court case numbers, and record numbers look. For example,YYYY-###### gives 2026-000123.
You’ll find the Sequencer Formats card on Config → General in the CAD admin panel. Like the rest of that page, changes are kept as a draft until you click Save Changes.
