Changing a number sequence to shared?

Posted on by Community Member

Hi all,

I had created a new number sequence in the Warehouse management module. I created it as a per legal entity number sequence by adding this line,

dataType.addParameterType(NumberSeqParameterType::DataArea, true, false);

Now I want to make this number sequence a shared one. I removed the above line and ran the following job to load the number sequence

new WhsNumberSeqModuleWHS().load();

In the NumberSequenceDataType table, I still see the scope of my datatype as 1 which means it is still per legal entity instead of share.

Is there anyway I can change it to share without deleting data from the tables?

Shooting blindly here, but are you just changing the number sequence from a single company to a shared sequence? Why not just change it pr. company in the number sequence setup? I would believe you have a parameter for setting up the number sequence somewhere...

1. Create a new shared number sequence

2. Go in to each company and change the parameters for the assigned number sequence you want to change...

Nothing is deleted... Just gets a new value next time a record is created from the new shared sequence...

However... Are you thinking about changing a context of table from pr legal entity to a global table... You will be faced with some issues. Ia that what you're trying to achieve?

Hi Fredrik,

A new shared number sequence cannot be created like that and assigned. A shared number sequence will not appear in the parameter form's number sequence tab. We have to assign it from the reference tab in the number sequence form itself.

Hi Zubair,

After removing the DataArea code from the respective Number Sequence Class, please delete the records created for your new number sequence in the following tables.

1) NumberSequenceDataType

2) NumberSequenceReference

Then run the job to load your new number sequence.

Hope this will work!
