Sample Implementation

The chart below gives an example of how you might set up sequences, categories, and assignments within Receivables. Your implementation will depend on whether you wish to perform any manual entry of document numbers and how many sequences you wish to use for your transactions and receipts. Additionally, it will depend on whether you use the Receivables automatic receipts, AutoInvoice, AutoLockbox, and finance charge features.

Sequence Name Sequence Type Document Category
Invoice Automatic/Manual Each Invoice Transaction Type
Debit Memo Automatic/Manual Each Debit Memo Transaction Type
Commitment Automatic/Manual Each Deposit Transaction Type
Commitment Automatic/Manual Each Guarantee Transaction Type
Chargeback Automatic/Manual Each Chargeback Transaction Type
Credit Memo Automatic/Manual Each Credit Memo Transaction Type
Lockbox Receipt Automatic Each Lockbox Payment Method
Automatic Receipt Automatic Each Automatic Payment Method
Manual Receipt Automatic/Manual Each Manual Payment Method
Automatic
Adjustment
Automatic Each Automatic Adjustment Activity (including seeded activities)
Automatic
Adjustment
Automatic Each Finance Charge Activity
Manual Adjustment Automatic/Manual Each Manual Adjustment Activity

If you use the same payment methods for your lockbox receipts as you do for your manually entered receipts, you must use an automatic sequence for both manual and lockbox receipts, as AutoLockbox requires an automatic sequence. Additionally, if you wish to use automatic sequencing with AutoInvoice, you should assign an automatic sequence to the transactions types you assign to your imported transactions.

Solving Problems

Below is a list of errors you might encounter if you have set the sequential numbering profile option to either 'Partially Used' or 'Always Used,' but have not set up your document sequences correctly:
