What are Sequence Numbers?

Sequence Numbers serve the following purposes:

• Display: Sequence numbers are used for display. The validation tables are listed in order of sequence number on the Govern user form.
• Computation: Sequence numbers are also used for calculations, which are performed in order of sequence number; i.e., sequence number 2 is calculated before 3, sequence number 3 is calculated before number 4, etc. Therefore, if a table contains values that are dependent on the results of calculations performed in other tables, it must have a higher sequence number.

Sequence Numbers are automatically created. One (1) is added to the previous sequence number. The highest sequence number must be assigned to the table that is dependent on calculations performed in tables with lower sequence numbers. The sequence number of a table can be changed with the following procedure.
