The sequences in a bill of material and the operations in a bill of routing can be renumbered. This function is useful if the numbers originally were entered in intervals of 10, but sequences or operations have been added at a later stage with temporary numbers. By renumbering the sequences or operations the correct interval between the numbers will be restored.
