Plugin doesn't work

Hi, I created a basic plugin that generates the account number when creating account, post operation, create.  I signed the assembly, and deployed successfully, and I can see the plugin registered in solution as well. But when I created a new account, the account number didn't show up. Please advise what else I missed.

        protected override void ExecuteCrmPlugin(LocalPluginContext localContext)
        {
            if (localContext == null)
            {
                throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("localContext");
            }
            // Obtain the execution context from the service provider.
            IPluginExecutionContext context = localContext.PluginExecutionContext;
            IOrganizationService service = localContext.OrganizationService;

            // The InputParameters collection contains all the data passed in the message request.
            if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") &&
                context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity)
            {
                // Obtain the target entity from the input parameters.
                Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
                //</snippetAccountNumberPlugin2>

                // Verify that the target entity represents an account.
                // If not, this plug-in was not registered correctly.
                if (entity.LogicalName == "account")
                {
                    // An accountnumber attribute should not already exist because
                    // it is system generated.
                    if (entity.Attributes.Contains("accountnumber") == false)
                    {
                        // Create a new accountnumber attribute, set its value, and add
                        // the attribute to the entity's attribute collection.
                        Random rndgen = new Random();
                        entity.Attributes.Add("accountnumber", rndgen.Next().ToString());
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        // Throw an error, because account numbers must be system generated.
                        // Throwing an InvalidPluginExecutionException will cause the error message
                        // to be displayed in a dialog of the Web application.
                        throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("The account number can only be set by the system.");
                    }
                }
            }
        }
