I’m customizing SharePoint form in power app. I have a Number field. The requirement is to set the initial value of this number to 20000 and then automatically decrease by one when users create new item. It is possible to do so?

    @Abraham88 yes this is possible. When users create a new item get the highest number using top count 1 and sort order Desc and put that into a float variable. Then have an increment variable action, select your float variable and set the value to -1.
