Shot numbers are based on shooting order. So when you reorder shots, because of a delay or change of plan, the shot number will change.
This can create tracking challenges for example for Script Supervisors and others who have based their documentation on the established shot numbers not on the changed schedule.
One solution is to turn on Prep Number. The Prep Number gives a number to each shot that doesn't change. It's based on scene order.
The other is to write the original shot number into the custom User field. This won't change either.
