I have a Purchase Order system that uses a serialized value to track PO records. After record creation, this number is attached to a julian date to make a po number like this: 06052012-xxxxx, where xxx is the serialized value. Everything is fine at this point. The serialized value has never had a problem making the secondary PO number.
However, when going back in to some of these records, I'm finding that the serial field sometimes reverts to 1.
I really dislike when issues are sporadic. Any body ever have this issue?
I could write a script that would parse the PO number and reassign the correct serial, but that will not help
this from happening in the future. Not really a big deal since the PO number doesn't change, but I would like
to have this working perfectly.
The actual database is hosted on filemaker server 11 and we use both regular and advanced 11 clients.
Thanks,
Fred
