Automatic Part Naming?

Hi,
I'd like to automatically number our parts with the following format:
xxxxx-yy-zz
Where:
xxxxx is the job/project number
yy is the assy/sub assy number, with 00 being the master assy
zz is the unique part number
We would like to increment zz every time a new part is generated within a part studio.
Typically, we design in-context and hence all parts within a part studio will have the same yy number.
All parts within the same document will have the same xxxxx number.
Is it possible to automate this in Onshape?
Thanks
Hayden

The native Onshape will not automate this for you, however you can automate this with a custom app, and possibly with the Arena integration.
You can learn about creating custom apps here: Onshape Developer Documentation. Or you can have someone like CADSharp create it for you.
