Is it wrong that same subscription ID was recreated?

Environment:

Oracle Field Service (OFS)

Issue:

One of my events subscription expired after not being used for 36 hours. When I created a new similar subscription, the subscription ID for the newly created subscription is exactly the same as the expired subscription. I was expecting a new (different) subscription ID.

Resolution:

The described behavior is expected and valid. When your the subscription expires and a new request is sent the same way, using the same fields/events as used in the expired subscription, same subscription ID may be created but the page number will be different, as seen in the example below.

After 36 hours, same request is sent.
