Symptom
Does LMS Auto Generate ID support Item ID creation based off item classification?
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Reproducing the Issue
- Enable Auto Generated ID;
- Create an Online Only Item;
- Create a Scheduled Only Item
Expected results could be:
Sample Result: Online Item ID = 1
Sample Result: Scheduled Item ID = 1
OR
Sample Result: Online Item ID = 1
Sample Result: Scheduled Item ID = 2
Cause
The expectation that the product will always sequence IDs consistently is invalid. The system simply generates unique IDs, usually in ascending order, but doesn't guarantee anything but uniqueness.
Remember that: The primary keys to identify an unique item are: Item Type, Item ID and Revision Date. So it's expected to have the results above due to these variants.
