Counter

The counter object. Defined in the System menu.

Target Entity

An entity object used for formatting the value.

You need to set the “Format String” on the counter, example:

'{Target.Type} / {CurrentValue}'

“Type” = the property from the target entity.

“CurrentValue” = the current value from the property.

User

When the counter type is “User”, this value is used to define for which user you want the counter value i.e., each user has their own counter value.

Current user is used as a default value. This option is not applicable for global counter types.

The formatted value can use the user properties too, example:

‘{User.FirstName}: {CurrentValue}'

Counter Value

The counter vale after the increment.

Formatted Value
