Number Sequence based on date in a different cell

[netzy19]

Wanting to see if I can automate a number sequence in one column based on the data entered in another column.

Currently we manually enter the dates, and Bill of Lading numbers in this form. Our BOL numbers are always the date in straight number form with a dash and number afterwards to differentiate.

Wanted to see if there was a way that when we entered the date in column A, that it could automatically populate the next BOL number for that date in Column D on the same line.
Once the date changed, it would have to start over at -01 for the next date.

For example

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Welcome to the Board!

Put this formula in cell D2 and copy down:

=IF(A2<>"",TEXT(A2,"mmddyy") & "-" & TEXT(COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2),"00"),"")

Is this for Excel or Google Sheets?
