I have a question about ASN Carton generation in multi-user environments.

The Carton number ( aka UCC-128 ) is a 20 digit number with the UPC prefix plus 
9 digit 
carton number.

Do you use a single range for all cartons, or have different ranges for each 
trading partner?

If I use a single range, then if 2 users generate cartons at the same time, the 
carton numbers 
become intermingled.  

If I lock the process, and only allow one user to generate cartons, then the 
other users 
complain ;-)

I'm just curious how others have dealt with this (potential) problem...

TIA
