Manually in the database for that particular sequence.  Let me look for the command...

    You could also set the 230010 as a prefix in your OIR for new parts then use a sequence table for the rest of your number.

    As with any number sequence table, it may generate numbers that never get used. You also need to set the sequence increment to 1 instead of the default, I think it is 10.
