Custom ID field - ability to format numbers to display in X number of digits

The recently launched custom ID field is great, but having tried it out, it appears it is currently not possible to format the way in which numbers appear, regarding the amount of digits.

For example, it would be great to be able to set ‘4 digits’ as the preferred display format, so that the ID numbers would start as 0001, instead of currently displaying as 1.

Hoping this will be added as a quick follow-up, soon! :pray:

My brain would benefit from the possibility to format the numbers in the custom ID fields.

You can now enter a prefix and a number is added to the prefix.

Next to setting the prefix, it would be nice to be able to set the number of characters.

That way you could have ID numbers like

IDN-00025
IDN-00102
IDN-09245

which are far better :wink: than

IDN-25
IDN-102
IDN-9245
