    Hi,

    Could you share the screen print of the error?

    or post the exact error and give the exact table name or id.

    reopen the table, check if there are any filters set, remove all filters, then recheck, if the number exists.

    ok, was the page or the base table customized?

    it could be that at runtime a second record with the same no. is created before you register.

    Hey Breketoek,

    I hope you found the solution. Recently I had the same issue and finally I found out that it turned out to be the 'primary key' of the table that was causing it! I modified the primary keys of the table and it worked then!

    It's all about giving some random tries!! ;)
