Auto-number duplicating

Neil Egsgard

I just noticed that my auto-numbers are duplicating on some sheets. My expectation was that auto-numbers provide a unique identifier. Any one how this can happen and if auto-numbers are actually unique?

Hi @Neil Egsgard

I hope you're well and safe!

Do you have any workflows moving/copying rows to the sheet?

Was that the issue?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Hi @Andrée Starå ,

Looks like the row was copied or moved. Going to add in error checking to identify non-unique identifiers.

Thanks,

Neil
