What are some of the best practices regarding packing of generic inquiries in customization projects? Acumatica defaults the screen ID to GI.00.XX.XX, and if you try to publish a project with conflicting screen IDs it fails. I know we can change the screen ID ourselves, but I’ve seen issues in the past where this would completely break the automatic numbering when a user tries to add a new generic inquiry to the site map.

Hi @Gabriel Michaud normally I will create separated customization project for GI and put a unique screen ID with specified prefix then I will manage the track changes for that.

in 2002R2 you can use the CHANGE SCREEN ID button to give the GI a meaningful name. This will update the site map.  Use the same prefix or all of them to make it easy to find them.
