# Problem Description

Currently all multi-table synthesizers assume that each table contains single-table (non-sequential) data. However, in some cases you may have one or more table that correspond to sequences. As an example, see [**this issue**](https://forum.datacebo.com/t/duplicated-values-within-a-group/198) raised by @yuntien.lee.

We will keep this feature request open and use to collect more information about this use case, and communicate any updates in prioritization, etc.

# Workarounds

In the meantime, do note that there may be workarounds you can use to emulate the sequences in a multi-table context. This may require some additional post-processing to delete duplicate rows, reorder, etc. For anyone running into this issue, our team can help provide workarounds that will unblock your use case.
