51.1 Setting Up Next Numbers

Navigation

From General Systems (G00), choose Next Numbers

You use next numbers to assign numbers to items that must have unique numbers, such as draw reports, batch numbers, and document numbers. The next numbers program determines how these numbers are assigned.

Next numbers for the Job Cost system are stored in system 51. The Job Cost system uses next numbers for the following purposes:

  • To assign progress entry batch numbers

  • To assign progress entry document numbers

  • To assign draw report numbers

  • To link profit recognition tables

Caution:

Next numbers are central to JD Edwards World systems. You must be thoroughly familiar with next numbers before you change them.
