Set start value for column with autoincrement

You need to set the Identity seed to that value:

CREATE TABLE orders
(
 id int IDENTITY(9586,1)
)

To alter an existing table:

ALTER TABLE orders ALTER COLUMN Id INT IDENTITY (9586, 1);

More info on CREATE TABLE (Transact-SQL) IDENTITY (Property)

In the Table Designer on SQL Server Management Studio you can set the where the auto increment will start. Right-click on the table in Object Explorer and choose Design, then go to the Column Properties for the relevant column:

Here the autoincrement will start at 760

From Resetting SQL Server Identity Columns:

Retrieving the identity for the table Employees:

DBCC checkident ('Employees')

Repairing the identity seed (if for some reason the database is inserting duplicate identities):

DBCC checkident ('Employees', reseed)

Changing the identity seed for the table Employees to 1000:

DBCC checkident ('Employees', reseed, 1000)

The next row inserted will begin at 1001.

Also note that you cannot normally set a value for an IDENTITY column. You can, however, specify the identity of rows if you set IDENTITY_INSERT to ON for your table. For example:

SET IDENTITY_INSERT Orders ON

-- do inserts here

SET IDENTITY_INSERT Orders OFF

This insert will reset the identity to the last inserted value. From MSDN:

If the value inserted is larger than the current identity value for the table, SQL Server automatically uses the new inserted value as the current identity value.
