Strange uniqueid, 7feb0863 is changing in 7feb.0863 for children

Hi,

I have a functional app with parent-children tables.

Today I encountered a strange behaviour:

User added a parent row, with uniqueid() generated 7feb0863

User added children, and as he added, children disappeared from app.

Luckily, user observed and reported this behaviour. On background checks,and testing with the same parent row, I found that the child parent id column was changing in 7feb.0863 (a dot added).

I tried this with another app,and same thing happened. Google sheets are text formated for those columns.

I can’t find an explanation for this behavior, other than perhaps the servers are trying to change this ID into a date value.

I had one or twice duplicated uniqueid()s generated in the past that had repercussions with our partners, but this one is even more strange.

Any ideas what can the reason be?

Thank you

Your uniqueID columns format (in Sheets) must be set to Plain Text, not Automatic

You’ll need to correct the incorrect entries manually
