[LegacyUG] Renumbering RIN

2011-10-26 Thread Dave Johnson
I am considering renumbering my RINS. I have about 15,000 records in my Legacy DB. Can anyone tell me how the renumber works? Does it start with my start family, my spouse, my children, their children, my parents, etc? Or is it sort of random based on how the data is stored? Dave David L.

It takes the highest numbers and fills them in to the lower abandoned RINs. RINs and MRINs are simply numbers assigned sequentially as you enter individuals in the Family File or link couples together. They have no other significance. If you want a special numbering system, use the User ID
