Document Sequence Page

To enter document sequence numbers online:

1. Use the Document Sequence page (DOC_SEQ_PY_REC_SEC) to enter document sequencing numbers for a specific document type. (Navigation: Click the Document Sequencing link on the miscellaneous Payables and eSettlements Payment Entry pages.)

   Click the Search button to select a document type that you previously defined for financial transactions.

2. Enter a Document Sequence Number of up to 12 characters.

   You can access this field if you specified on either the Journal Code page or the Document Type page that the document sequence number is entered manually. The system validates this number when you save the transaction. If you've designated automatic numbering, the system displays NEXT in the Document Sequence Number field until you save the transaction. At that time, the system assigns the next available sequence number.

   After you save the transaction and the system either assigns a document sequence number or validates a manually entered number, the transaction records populate the Document Sequence Date field with the current date. If the system is unsuccessful in assigning a document sequence number, it populates the Document Sequence Status field with a status message.
