Hi, I have the below scenario and i want to know how exactly auto number attribute works. Entity – Customer Attribute – Address proof number Scenario: 1st transaction – Customer entity – Address proof – 1 got added(Lets say id is 70) 2nd transaction – Customer entity – Address proof- 2 got added(Lets say id is 72) Then without having the 2nd transaction information – I tried creating another transaction in between 1 and 2 Here when i created the customer entity (I will only have 1st transaction information) with the Address proof – 2 (71 is the assigned number) When i combine all the transaction the sequence was all set! How is it possible i.e., 70, 71, 72 How is that possible. Was that a random scenario? Would mendix use any other logic in order to generate the autonumber?

As you can read in the documentation, auto numbers are created by the database and incremented by one from the default value with each new object.
