There's an aspect called countable aspect, and it does just that. However, it works with it's own property - countable - so if you're looking to use your own property - you will need to write some code.

Write a task listener. The task listener can be responsible for looking up the latest number, incrementing it, then setting the process or task variable with the new value.
