Apparently you can't use the Number type in the DataGen step for 11-digit numbers, but you can try this:

1) Create a property where you set your starting number (eg, 90000000000)
2) Add a DataGen step and create a Number type property that runs from 0 to at least the number of requests you will submit during the run. Make sure to check 'Shared' so that each thread will get a unique number.
3) Add a Script property in the same DataGen step that returns the start number property added to the Number type property. Mark this 'Shared' as well, and use this new property in your request.
