Hi @idan_bernard - have a field that is an autonumber:

Then make your primary field a formula and use:

1000 + AutoID

You can hide the AutoID field if you don’t want to see that.

Worth noting that if you delete a record, you also delete the autonumber associated with it, so that won’t then be available:
