Issue/Request: 

Hello, we use a webform to have people submit project requests. We use the SID assigned as our unique project serial ID number. HOWEVER, I just noticed that on 10/11/2016 there was a jump from SID 698 to 701 and from then on the SID has been incrementing by 5 numbers rather than by just 1. Please assist with fixing this problem.

Thank you,

Hello Aniko,

SID in webforms are sequential across all webforms on the site. So what that means is that if someone submitted a to another one of your webforms it will use the next available SID. The same goes for deleted submissions. If someone submits a webform and it then gets deleted, it will still count the submission.
