Payment Document Number Series

[To Define Financials Basics]

Usage

Use this window to enter, change, or view the number series entered for the various payment document series. Payment Document number series is a unique form of ID for payments; it simplifies follow up. You choose the payment document series for which you want to enter numbers, then state valid from date, start value, end value, and next number. The next number is defaulted from (start value + 1). If only next number is not specified, document numbers have to be filled in by user, but they have to be in numeric data type and they must fit the given range (between start value and end value). If start value or end value are not specified, document numbering has to be done manually and entered value is not limited to numbers (it can contain all the alphanumeric characters).

CAUTION! Some payment document series will not work properly without automatic numbering (i.e. without specified start value, end value and next no).
