Photos edited in Ps lose Original File Number on export

Issue:
Photos edited in Ps lose Original File Number on export

When it occurs:

Every single time when you edit photo from Lightroom in Photoshop and go back to Lightroom.

Then you export your photos with file name settings utilizing "{Filename number suffix>>}.
The original ARW file exports properly with the number included.
The edited TIF file exports incorrectly without the number included.

Results:

When you have multiple Photoshop-edited photos in collection to export you end up with a folder of assorted photos (the file order is messed up and it's hard to manually fixed due to the lack of original number in Ps-edited files).

Your image does not have a file number suffix anymore, because it ends with '-Edit', not with a number. What you can do is change the file rename template for external editors. Simply use the original file name, because the extension will be different anyway (the original image is _DSC5497.ARW, the edited image will be _DSC5497.TIF).

@JohanElzengaThank you for the quick and clear solution!
So it isn't a bug after all. Just a matter of settings.
