Hi @Joseph Chung Yin

Thank you for your input.

Let me check if any automation is existing for creating and deleting jira issues. If not let me create support request to Atlassian.

To supplement what @Dave Mathijs stated, I would recommend that you to contact Atlassian Support (https://support.atlassian.com) with your support zip files for further troubleshooting.  The issue number by default is always increase by 1 and it will never go backward or jumps around.

Follow the KB article to find out the what is the pcounter for your project -

select pcounter from project where pname='<project name>';

Lastly, you may need to determine if there are any custom process against the project that you may not be aware of where it (they) are creating issues/deleting issues automatically from the backend.

Hope this helps.
