Auto-entered calc recalculating on import

I have server-based database that can be checked out and back in (for use off-network).

All records in the database have a URN (auto-entered serial) field but, as it would be possible to have duplicate URN records created off-site and on-site, each record has a second field, which is URN & UID (unique logged-in user code).

This second field is an auto entered calculation field with "do not replace" enabled and is also the check-in import match field.

The import process is replacing the content of URN·UID, even though 'do not replace' is enabled. Is this just the way things work and I have to move away from auto-entered calculations? Or is there another way around this?
