Default How to update heading numbers?

I have three heading styles. They are numbered:
1 heading 1

1.1 Heading 2



1.1.1 Heading 3

Suddenly, any new headings I add are not numbered. Is there a way to update the heading numbers similar to "update field"?

Did you change the heading style? The default style is not numbered.

Thank you for all the information.
But it turns out that my problem was caused by something else.

I have a table in the report. The table is generated by a Velocity Template Language template.
In the table, there is a cell that has multiple entries.
The cell used a bullet list. The list had three entries. This is why three numbers were inserted, causing the TOC to skip from 2 to 5.
When I removed the bullet list format the numbering was corrected.

Thank you for the update. One more item in things to ask about, I guess.
