Customize Number sequence error

I have a customize number sequence for projects table (ProjTable). Which was already developed before my joining. We have 10 entities and in all of them the sequence number is working fine. However, the sequence number field have duplicate values in some entities ;). Duplicate values are not an issue however right now. Our functional consultant defined a new entity setup number sequence for it and start defining new projects in new entity and it start generating the following error after first successful entry.

Cannot create a record in Hierarchies (Hierarchy). Hierarchy ID: XXXX-00002, XXX-XXX-005. The record already exists.

XXXX-00002 is sequence number and XXX-XXX-005 is project id.

I have tried to fix the problem by Manual Cleanup - > Reset, but in vain. Sometimes it gets successful but often it generates error. I have tried to remove sequence number for newly created entity but not working.

Right now, this sequence is not useful as it has duplicate values. I have two option eighter remove this sequence number or fix the issue.

Please give suggestions for the solution.

Regards

Moved from D365 general forum to the Finance forum, because it seems to be about F&O and not about D365 in general. Please let me know if you disagree.

Customize Number sequence error

Hi,

Here is the code and other detail
class S_NumberSeqModuleProject extends NumberSeqModuleProject { public void loadModule() { NumberSeqDatatype datatype = NumberSeqDatatype::construct(); const Integer wizardHighest = 999999; const Integer sortField = 20; datatype.parmDatatypeId(extendedTypeNum(S_ProjectNumber)); datatype.parmReferenceHelp("Project number"); datatype.parmWizardIsContinuous(false); datatype.parmWizardIsManual(NoYes::No); datatype.parmWizardIsChangeDownAllowed(NoYes::No); datatype.parmWizardIsChangeUpAllowed(NoYes::No); datatype.parmWizardHighest(wizardHighest); datatype.parmSortField(sortField); datatype.parmReferenceLabel("Project number"); datatype.addParameterType(NumberSeqParameterType::DataArea, true, false); this.create(datatype); } public NumberSeqModule numberSeqModule() { return NumberSeqModule::Proj; } [SubscribesTo(classstr(NumberSeqGlobal),delegatestr(NumberSeqGlobal,buildModulesMapDelegate))] static void buildModulesMapSubsciber(Map numberSeqModuleNamesMap) { NumberSeqGlobal::addModuleToMap(classnum(S_NumberSeqModuleProject), numberSeqModuleNamesMap); } }

class S_ProjectNumSeqJob { /// <summary> /// Runs the class with the specified arguments. /// </summary> /// <param name = "_args">The specified arguments.</param> public static void main(Args _args) { S_NumberSeqModuleProject numberSeqMod = new S_NumberSeqModuleProject(); numberSeqMod.loadModule(); numberSeqMod.load(); info("Number sequence generated"); } }

Now the current number is 19 but the in error message duplicate is 9

Hi nbhatti,

The error is not on the projects table, but the Hierarchies. This is used for project activities. When you go to the Legal entities form, there is a tab page with number sequences. Check the set up for the reference Hierarchy ID.

Customize Number sequence error

Thanks Andre,

Actually was facing the same issue. But still stuck with the issue. I have delete all the projects, refresh the Number Sequence which was for hierarchy ID and when add new project, it assign new hierarchy ID like XXXX-000000 and project saved. When again try to add new project then it again stuck with the XXXX-000000 and genereate the error that XXXX-000000 is already define.

Moreover I have tried with reset Number Sequence manually through batch job.

So please suggest how I can fix the error, for rest of entities its working fine. However I am also trying to fix.

Hi nbhatti,

I'm confused. You mentioned that you still have an issue, but you also marked my reply as verified answer. If you still have an issue, can you share what exact settings you have on the number sequences. Is the Continuous option enabled for the hierarchies?

Hi Andre,

Actually problem is of Hierarchy ID, that's why I mark it solved. But when I refresh that sequence and delete all projects and test it. It was not working for the particular entity. Its setting is as the other sequences, I have tries with different setting but its not working. Now I have remove the Hierarchy ID and its working fine.

However the problem was of hierarchy ID, not the sequence number.
