Goal

To control employee numbering or more accurately prevent numbering gaps.

For Example: The Last Employee created on the System had the Automatic Employee Number 00050, the next should have been in sequence 00051. However, upon creation of a new Employee today, the Employee Number became 00059. Another record was created following this gap, and the record successfully took the number 00060.
