  Is there an easy way to create an alpha numbers series in NAV (we have 2017 version)?
  
  Example:
  
  REVA
  REVB
  REVC
  REVD
  etc…

  Standard NAV requires a number be part of the series so it can increment. If you want alpha’s, you would need to create custom to increment based on alpha. Have you considered REV01, REV02, REV03, etc?

  Yes, which is what we will probably do. However due to certifications on certain items referencing an Alpha rev. value we would have preferred to use an alpha increment.
