Re-using the internal id is really bad practice, because you will be deleting the old data and will therefore loose your history. When the auditor comes and asks for details of your end of life assets you will be in trouble.
As a general principle for business, data should never be deleted, but should be superseded. Even a cursory glance will show that ofbiz follows that principle. Sometimes we have to guide our client/customer back to the true path. Hope that helps.

I know it may sound weird but our users like to reuse their internal Id for a fixedAsset after a fixedAsset has reached endOfLife. Regards Anil Patel -- No virus found in this incoming message.
