Auto generate value in data type
I have a data type with a column for serial number.I am using an activity to write data to the data type's local data storage.Is there some logic or function that can be used to auto generate the serial number (like the first record has serial number -1 then 2 then 3 and so on).
The value may be calculated in any step and stored in a property which will later, with all other field be written to the local data storage.

The simplest way to get the count number is pxResultCount.
If you have your list in Page say ItemList, you will get the required number in ItemList.pxResultCount.
Increment it by 1 everytime before assigning it to your page.

Easiest way is to maintain the value in activity in Local or Parameter (by increasing the counter after every save) in a loop.
Param.SerialNo=Param.SerialNo+1;
You can also look trace the activity whihc runs when a new work object gets created (GenerateUniqueID or something like this for knowledge.
Also look at couple of functions by name Unique.
