Hello Community,

Is there a way to choose a number series for posted invoices other than the one set in Sales & Receivables Setup?

Thanks in advance!

In standard Business Central, it's not possible to manually select a different No. Series for posted invoices during posting — the system always uses the one defined in Sales & Receivables Setup.

If you want to dynamically change or assign different No. Series based on conditions at runtime, you will need to customize your business logic using AL code. The best approach is to contact your Microsoft partner to help implement this customization properly and ensure it aligns with your posting processes.

Hello,

In order to be able to select a different series, you would need to enable the Posting No. Series field on the Sales Order or Sales Invoice.

It is also necessary to “relate” the series to be chosen within the one in the sales and marketing configuration.

Once related, it can be selected in the Sales Order or Sales Invoice and it will be registered with that series.

I hope I can help.

Regards,

Andres

Sales & Receivable is a more of standard and the recommended approach, the one having posting no series on your fat tab will do the job but the question still remains -

Do you want end users to put in the value every time.

What is they accidently used incorrect one? All cancellation will be needed?

You don't wish to have new no series for a Posted SO everytime.

if you make this auto then why not to use Sales & receivable one.

You wish to bifurcate this user wise?
