Journal Batch document nr. needs to be the same among lines

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 40

Hi there,

I am currently working on a payment journal. Whenever I retrieve the posted purchase invoices they show up with each line having a different Document nr. I would love to  have similar Document nr. for each lines as this makes it much easier to find previous entries.

Hope someone could help me out. 

Thanks in advance.

    So, if I understand it correctly. I cannot use the same document nr. for multiple lines whenever I am using a No. series. But, a No. series is required to be able to post a journal. So, it is actually not possible to use the same document nr. for all lines? Only solution would be to do it manually, but that is really unfavorable in this case.

    Hi,

    Document No. get unique when we have a balance account in the last line means, try to put all the Vendors first and then in last line put the Balance line without providing the  Bal. Account type and Bal. Account No., if we are putting Bal. Account type and Bal. Account No. in each line, so in that case default system makes a next document number based on the Batch No. series provided.

    There is no chance to change this mechanism.

    Thanks
