Philippines Document Numbering Setup

The Philippines Document Numbering feature lets you choose and set up document numbering per document type, subsidiary, and location. The system then automatically generates and assigns the document number to corresponding Philippines documents.

Note:

Use the Philippines document numbering feature only for the following document types:

Sales Invoice
Billing Statement
Collection Receipt
Official Receipt
Credit Memo

The initial document number can be any number you want to start with. For example, you can start with a number between 1 and 999,999. The BIR requires a minimum of 6 digits for the document number. If you enter less than 6 digits, the system automatically adds zeroes from the left to make it 6 digits.

After you set up Philippines document numbering, the system automatically generates the document number for every new transaction of the same document type, incrementing by 1 from the previous transaction's document number. When you print a transaction using the Philippines invoicing template, the document number is included.
