Hi,

In organization administration - while generate number sequence takes long time to response in cloud dev environment. The wizard is not opening even if we waited for 3 more times.

    Hi Kathiravan,

    There is no other way to generate the number sequences. Personally, I prefer manual creation as the wizard will propose patterns which could lead to duplicate voucher numbers. If you need to have a quick generation for test or demo purposes, it is a good use case to use the wizard.

    Can you tell what VM size you are using for this machine? Have you tried to use e.g. more memory or premium storage? You can also use some hardware monitoring tools to see if there are sufficient resources.

    Thanks Andre, We are using 32GB RAM for dev environments. I am facing this in all dev environments. if in case I am creating new number sequence, should I need to generate using wizard or manual number sequence in UAT environment.

    The wizard would be helpful in mass creating number sequences. If you have developed a new number sequence reference and you need to setup one for testing, then you can probably create a number sequence manually faster compared to using the wizard.

    The problem seems to be that this wizard now runs through all companies and every numbersequence instead of just current company as in the past.  I have written my own logic to generate number sequences. You can also use copy to company functionality which has options to copy number sequences. There are a few hiccups though. You will need to consider scenario where number sequences are getting generated in the background when user clicks on menu items.
