Easy import template - dublicate numbers

Dear community,

 

I recently loaded data in an instance using “easy import” (~ 200 change_requests) --> Easy import

 

Import and data validation were flawless. After a month, we noticed that the change numbers of the manually created changes in the system matched those of the imported ones. This means that a technical error must have occurred somewhere.

We immediately incremented the number range and corrected the duplicate change numbers.

My question: has this also happened to you and what could be the reason? We have not changed anything in the properties.

Hi, unfortunately your post does not contain sufficient detail to allow a clear diagnosis.
Where these records imported did you include the 'number' field in your import?
I don't believe that 'number' is an excluded field for easy import OOB in the property

glide.import_template.field_types_to_ignore
So, if you uploaded numbers and didn't update number maintenance (for change) to allow suitable offset, then duplicates may be possible.
