    Lowell, he has mentioned in first post that The primary key combination for the destination table is "ROBumber + ROTime" .

    agreed, but if he auto generates an overlapping value ,"ROBumber + ROTime" + 1 in the case of duplicate "ROBumber + ROTime" from the source, he of course could duplicate the value, but against a different row than was incremented.

    that was my point...he's not guaranteeing a PK value is unique with the current logic of arbitrarily incrementing a value.
