Understanding Legal Numbering

Legal numbering complies with the legal requirements that are stipulated in General Resolution 1415.

Legal numbering can be set up for invoices and shipment notices, and is assigned by issue place and DGI (Direccion General Impositiva) document type.

The legal number has these parts:

  • The document type assigned by the Administracion Federal de Ingresos Publicos (AFIP). For example, the document type might be 01-Invoice.

  • The invoice letter (A, B, C, E, and so on).

  • The issue place (where the voucher was issued).

  • A next number.

To set up legal numbering, you set up a relationship between document types and you set up next numbers.
