Based on your evidence, I could guess exactly where to look.  It 
turns out you are using generate-id() on the current node but the 
current node is a different node the two areas of your stylesheet:

In the first template it appears the current node is CoProdID, while 
in the second template it appears to be ProdName.

Guessing your requirements, it seems that you want all ProdName 
elements to point to the CoProdId, so that would mean in your second 
template change the code to read "{generate-id(..)}" to point to CoProdId.

I hope this helps.
