&#xD;
    Recently we brought up in discussion that we don't know what happens when incidents or test cases reach the point of TC999999,     Understandably this wont be for a while but with the way we work we have found we are moving through these reference numbers rather quickly. When this occurs what will happen, will the numbers cycle back to TC000001?     If so what would happen to the original TC000001?     Let me know if you need any more details.     Thanks,     Ben </description><language>en-US</language><copyright>(C) Copyright 2006-2026 Inflectra Corporation.</copyright><managingEditor>support@inflectra.com</managingEditor><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Project_Management/</category><category domain="http://www.dmoz.org">/Computers/Software/Quality_Assurance/</category><generator>KronoDesk</generator><a10:contributor><a10:email>support@inflectra.com</a10:email></a10:contributor><a10:id>http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/forums/threads</a10:id><ttl>120</ttl><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/1359.aspx</link><item><guid isPermaLink="false">threadId=1359</guid><author>Ben Patterson (benjamin.patterson@theconsortium.com)</author><category domain="http://www.inflectra.com/kronodesk/thread/tag">database</category><title>What happens when we run out of ref numbers</title><description>Hi,&#xD;

Hi Ben&#xD;

    Thanks for asking the question, don't worry we only add those zero (0) prefixes to improve readability, the actual maximum size is much bigger - 2^32     Regards     Sarah </description><pubDate>Tue, 16 Feb 2016 00:40:05 -0500</pubDate><a10:updated>2016-02-16T00:40:05-05:00</a10:updated><link>/Support/Forum/spiratest/issues-questions/1359.aspx#reply2479</link></item></channel></rss>
