We had a user accidentally delete a custom object that uses automated number sequencing. I am able to restore the object from a copy from a different tenant. (<NEW>, then copy and paste). However, Acumatica generates a new ID for the object. Other objects reference this one based on the ID.

Can I temporarily turn on Manual Numbering, restore the object, and use the old ID? If I do, does this operation impact anything outside of what I am attempting?

Yes, you can temporarily turn on auto-numbering , then set up one item, then re-activate auto numbering.

If you’re worried about Users who may try to add another entity of the same type while you’re restoring the missing item, perform your correction when other Users are not using the system.

Hi @rcreasy Yes you can enable the manual numbers and perform your activity during business hours, Once the restore is completed please activate it.
