Set Record Field for several identical items

I would always assign one individual value in a database, in your case for example the position of the symbol. Alternatively, you can create one individual number (inventory number). Than keep this individual number as the first value (column) in the database.
In a similar project, I only succeeded with this simple change. 

If that's not the solution, I'll take a closer look at your file.

I think you could try using a Mix2 node and choose the Cross Reference mode in the Object Info palette of the node. The important thing for list handling in this instance is that there are the same number of values flowing to each input. The Mix 2 node allows you to repeat values in the way that you want.

I just realized a weird thing. 
If I connect an object with several record fields I got duplicates in the output. A Bug?

It's easy to fix with a "Remove Duplicates" Node

 

Wrong, If i want this object to move afterwards:

And fixed:
