How can I assign participants sequential SubjectIDs based on when they take the survey?

I'd like each participant to have a sequential SubjectID based on the time they took the survey. This needs to start at SubjectID #110, as I am finishing off data collection for an older study. So, the first person to take the survey should be 110, the next should be 111, etc. I have tried embedding a Quota as per another forum post, but that starts the SubjectID at 0 and I need it to start at 110. Any advice is appreciated!

https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/10712/how-can-i-assign-participants-sequential-subjectids-based-on-when-they-take-the-surveyHey there, so I ran into this same thing. When you go to Tools -> Quotas on the survey and look at your specified Quota. Under the ____/100 (or whatever amount your quota is set to) there is blue text that will either say "Reset" or "Set Count". If it says "reset" click it and then it will change to "Set Count". At this point, click set count and it will let you specify where you want the count to start from (in your case 110).

Hope this helps!
