Hi Matt,
I think we are talking about the same issue here. 00002998 should (was) in the database. The number before it and after it are both valid entries and AFAIK no numbers were missed.

The Barcode is EAN8 so that is 0000299 with a CRC digit of 8. 0000298 and 0000300 exist.

This suggests database corruption of some sort.

OK thanks for clarifying.
Actually I have found that if a bulk imported list contains a type not previously defined, that type is automatically created when an item of that type is first checked out, which is kind of useful.

When you say ‘delete everything’ do you mean the whole collection, or remove the plug in or something in between? I tried deleting the collection but the circulation types remained.

Ahhh. Version updating seems to be a red herring. The real bulk imported list had blank circulation types and I generated these later in circulation types, but each item still had a blank unless edited individually only then did it assumed the first one by default. This caused the unfriendly blank page, an error message would have been nicer.

So how to edit or remove a circulation type name? The only option appears to be changing the duration. I now have a set of unusable types as I misapprehended their use.
