For any assignment form that is running on older app versions, any use of ID Generator Field/Tool would be picking the next running number from the app version it started on.
| App Version | Published | Environment Variable "counter" Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | |
| 2 | 10 | |
| 3 | Yes | 10 |
For example, process instance started on app version 1 will get 11 as the next number. Likewise, the one started on app version 2 will get 11 too.
...
The solution is to intercept at the data storing layer (form or form section) where the ID Generator Field is placed on.
Solution
At In the form where the ID Generator Field is in, modify the store binder, and set it to Bean Shell Form Binder.

This change should be done at every non-published version so that they will be picking up and using the environment variable from the published version.
