It is required that each object in the system (company, office, cashier, warehouse) has a numbering for each document used. Without such a setting, you will get an error when trying to create a document.
- Number of digits – total length in number of characters of the number
- Prefix – specifies what the initial characters/digits of the number will be
- Start number – which number to start the numbering from. If you don’t need to continue an existing numbering (on invoices, for example), it’s best to start at 0 or 1
Once you have completed these fields, the system will show you what the next generated number will look like.
If the numbering is related to an object, you will need to fill in which object – company, office, warehouse – you are creating/editing a numbering. Only one numbering can exist for a document type per object.
