I am using parallel sequences at the beginning of a lot of routings. As things change we have to add sequences and like to keep sequences in increments of 10. We have named our routings with "primary" or "alternate" as instructed by Microsoft consultants. We have found that the renumber program does not look at item/routing name combination, rather it updates all our "primary" routings and randomly changes the parallel "next" sequences. The next sequences are typically sequence 30 but the "flawed program" changes the next's to 40 sometimes, 50 sometimes, 60 sometimes. Our 600+ routings are messed up anytime we try to update the sequence of one item/name combination. Our company advisors Heartland Business Systems worked with Microsoft support for over 2 months and said it was not a bug but how the software was written. I was advised to submit this "enhancement" because it is a change being considered. I was not given the support case # but a lot of data was shared about this issue.We intend to use this software several more years and don't want to have to pay consultants to constantly fix this issue
