I'm not using the sequence object as a key for a file.

That part I completely understood. My point was that once you
retrieve the next sequence from the SQL sequence object, if you increment
it in your RPG program then the next time you retrieve the next sequence
from the SQL sequence object it will be a duplicate of one of the
incremented carton numbers used previously. But, if that is OK, then
using the SQL sequence object would work for you.
