Can't Create RFI With Same Number as Different RFI Type

You cannot manually create two RFI's with the same number, even if they are different types. When you try to create the second RFI with a different type than the first but the same number you get "RFI could not be updated. A RFI already exists with the same number. Please use a new number to continue" error. However, if you have the "Enable automatic RFI Number by project and type" checked in the project settings, it will create duplicate numbers for different RFI types.

 

The manual entry should allow for duplicate numbers of different RFI Types.
