      You must enter a valid GST unit that is associated with the GST unit search type that you entered in the processing option.

    • Legal Document Type

      This is the legal document type for which you want to set up the next number series.

    • Issue Place

      This is the location or the place where the legal document was issued, and must be a maximum of 6 (six) characters. Issue place can be used to maintain multiple series of invoice numbers within a GST unit.

      • You must have set up the new record with the same legal company, GST unit, issue place, and a date greater than the current date.

      • The Legal Document Type Same As field for the existing record must be blank.

      The value in this field must be different from the value in the Legal Document Type field.
