As per Informatica PC help guide, while adding transformations to a mapplet,we have to keep this ..

Answer / santsoh kumar sarangi

reusable sequence generator will give some range of value
for one instance like 0-1000 for one instance and 1001-2000.
so it will not allow ambiguity in the number.

If you not use reusable sequence generator then if mapplet
is used by two mapping then it may happen that number one
will come to first mapping and number two will go to the
second mapping which will create confusion.

For that reason mapplet ask for reusable sequence generator.

Let me know if i am wrong.

Answer / hardeepsingh83

I am not able to identify the reason behind this point.
If I am using a mapplet in 2 diff mappings and using
reusable seq generator(as per infmt guide) then both
mappings will get seq values accoriding to same Seq gen
transformation, which may not be required always or create
data issues.

Any body knows the exact reason behind it?
