Document Numbering for Sales Transactions

You can now automate document numbers generation for invoices and related transactions for the sales made by your organization. These document numbers are based on the document class, third party of the transaction, and transaction type.

The resultant values are the branch number and the sequence, the combination of these values makes up the document number to be stamped on the transaction.

To automate document numbering for your organizations, complete the setup:

• Set Localization settings: Use the Manage Localization System Options task to update the country in which your business unit operates. Select the Country field. Check the Enable Document Numbering check box.

• Define document numbering: Use the Manage Localization Document Numbering task and set the country. Select the business unit for which you want to define document numbering.

• Specify the party fiscal classifications: Select the Configure Context Values option on the Manage Localization Document Numbering page, an ADFDi spreadsheet appears. Specify the party fiscal classifications that will specify the document letter in document numbering sequence.

• Select the document class, document letter, and the transaction type for which you want to specify a document number. Select the document sequence and authorization codes that need to be applied during a given period.

Document numbers are stamped on the transaction to indicate completion of an action.
