7.6.1.3 - ASSETSPEC DISPLAYSEQUENCE is SMALLINT, but needs to be INT

We have GIS Pipelines that stretch over large distances. As a result, certain Pipeline Assets have thousands of Specs (10 Specs per length of pipe). When we create the Asset Specs through integration, the ASSETSPEC.DISPLAYSEQUENCE field is incremented by 1 and we have now reached the maximum number of 32767 on several of our assets. This results in database error 8115 when we try to save additional asset specs. We need to change the data type of ASSETSPEC.DISPLAYSEQUENCE to INT rather than SMALLINT, however the data type is read only in the Database Configuration application.

    Thank you for your submission. This is not the intended use of Asset Specifications. We may want to look at an alternative way to capture linear asset details as you describe. We'll want to understand what are the 10 spec values that are captured 10 times per length of pipe?
