Keep operations staff from duplicate matter file references

Operations coordinators lose track of new matters when file references are duplicated or missing, causing misrouted cases. It assigns sequential references and updates tracking so matters are locatable.

Overview

Operations coordinators risk misrouted cases and audit gaps when matter IDs are missing or duplicated. This workflow enforces sequential file references and keeps a single tracking table up to date, eliminating duplicate identifiers and making matters locatable. Customers report faster handoffs and zero missed identifiers.
