Unique ID of child for associated Parent

Relationship: Orders have many Defects

I have made a snapshot record that takes the maximum number of child (Defect) associated with the parent (Order) and that becomes the new record ID for the Defect.  
"CR-"&[Order]&"-"&[Snapshot]

The issue is that if the user deletes a child record, then there become duplicate Defect numbers.
