Part marks for identical pieces

I've got two seemingly identical brackets.

 

I've checked that the material is identical, even run the command that checks differences.

 

When I run numbering, they receive different prefixes despite having the same model role (bracket plate).

 

Anyone know what the culprit is?

The hole in the vetical plate with a bevel on it seems to be different, and the centre mark / cross hair for the back plate seems to be in a different place.....is it that maybe ?

That's not a hole, its just a cross hair that gets created when you join two plates to make one folded one.

 

No idea why the cross hairs end up in different places. The beginning plates are identical (they are copied).

Can you check if you have 'Unique single part numbers' ticked in Management Tools > Defaults > Numbering > General?
