Differences between runs with the same samples and parameters

[lcabus-flomics]

Hi all!

I have noticed that when I rerun the pipeline with the same samples and the same parameters there are slight changes in some of the output files. The changes are never really drastic, but they could be annoying when trying to optimize some steps where you expect very small changes.

Is there an option to add a seed so we can ensure that we will get always the same results if we don't change the parameters? I know that for some programs such as UMI-tools there is an option, but is there one on a pipeline level?
