Enter Invoice Number Series

Explanation

The Enter Invoice Number Series activity is used to enter, change, and view specific number series used for each customer and supplier invoice series.

A number series is defined in three ways:

  1. An identity for the invoice series is defined but not a number series. In this case, optional invoice numbers can be entered.
  2. A number series is defined but not a Next Value. In this case, optional numbers can be entered within the interval.
  3. A number series is defined and a value is entered in the Next value field. In this case, invoice numbers are assigned automatically.

Note: If an automatic number series is defined for a selected supplier invoice series ID you will not be allowed to manually enter any value in the supplier Invoice Identity field.

Prerequisites

This activity requires that information has been entered and saved in IFS/Enterprise, Company, the Invoice tab.

System Effects

Depending on what actions are taken, the result of this entry is that invoice number series can either be entered manually or assigned to the invoices automatically.
