Oracle Receivables uses the information you enter in this window to automatically default Uniform Invoice Sales Receipt numbers to AR invoices and miscellaneous transactions (see Defining Uniform Invoices/Sales Receipts and Defining Miscellaneous Uniform Invoices).

Suggestion: You can also use this form to determine how many unused Uniform Invoices are left in a book by comparing the number in the Current Invoice field with the number in the Last Invoice field. The Current Invoice field displays the next available invoice in the book, which can help you decide whether to request more books from the government.

To set up the Uniform Invoice Number Generator:

1. Navigate to the Define Uniform Invoice Numbers window.

2. In the Book Start Date field, enter the date that you will start using this book in DD-MON-YY format.

3. In the Invoice Word field, enter the two-character Invoice Word associated with this book of invoices. For Sales Receipt numbers, this field is automatically set to No.

4. In the First and Last Invoice fields, enter the starting and ending invoice numbers in the book.

5. In the Book Type field, select the invoice type that this number segment is used for:

Duplicate

Triplicate (default)

Dup/Trip. Select Dup/Trip when it does not matter if this book is used for commercial or non-commercial customers

Sales Receipt. Select Sales Receipt when you define Sales Receipt numbers.

For example, you may use a triplicate book for non-commercial customers, and simply discard the third invoice copy.

The system assigns a book number to the segment and displays the next available invoice number in the Current Invoice field. The Current Date field displays the date of the last invoice issued from this book.

6. Save your work.
