Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-3557:
------------------------------------------
Bilgin,
yes you are right... copy and paste error.
I just wanted to illustrate a situation where a gap in the sequence is
generated: invoice B could fail for another reason. All I wanted to show is
that use case #2 could lead to gaps.
Thanks for the detailed review.

> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Bug

> There is a fundamental issue with enforced sequences (for orders, invoices,
> etc ..) and concurrency.
> For example if two users are creating an order at the same time one of them
> will see the creation fail with a PK error. The problem is that the
> "getNextXXXId" rely on the party accounting preference entity, but there is
> absolutely no guarantee that the last number in the sequence gets updated
> before another service can read it.
> This is at best very annoying when used only internally but may be
> unpractical for e-commerce sites.
