Hi, I am not sure what cud be the reason but one behaviour of number sequences i know is that when ever a number sequences is freed or cleaned it is sent to Number sequence list (can be viewed from Basic -> setup -> Number sequences -> Number sequences -> List button) and next time when you create a new record this number sequence is picked up instead of the next that is expected. i guess this feature was brought in to re-use the freed number sequences.
So you cannot totally say that number sequences should be sorted based on the dates.
