Hi,
I don't understand why sometimes ( and i don't know when ) Business Central create a posting n°
so if i delete the sales order, i will have a blank into my invoice number
did you know why BC does'it ?
Thx !
Hi
We have the similar behavior and I could not find why. But I notice mostly happen if someone goes to Posting -> Posting Preview. Then we will have an invoice no for it. But this is not 100% of time.
thx you, i will make some test on my sandbox and reply back after this
This is happening because sometime a sales order get assigned a posted sales invoice no. before it is posted. And for audit trail purposes and to avoid leaps in your posted document no. series the system preserves the deleted invoice number.
So this is by design to make the auditors and regulators happy.
but when you delete the sales order who has a posting n°; it will make a blank in your series ?
and we can't have this
You mean in your sales order no. series?
Yes it will but not in your posted sales invoices.
Regulators seems to care more about invoice no. missing that sales order no. missing. But usually i activate sales order archive so i even can track deleted salesorders that never was posted.
in my order n° series, we can have blank in the series, not a problem
but i don't know how BC works when a sales orders, who has a posting n° reserved, is deleted
the invoice number become available again ?
It will not become available again, unless you manipulate your no. series and you really should not do that,
So, if this posting n° is unaivable, it will create a blank in my posting n° at the end
and we don't want that
i think, if we find WHEN et WHY BC create this posting n°, it will be a great discover !
I think we know both when and why
i read your message, but
How a sales order get assigned before it is posted ?
lot's of my order don't book a posting n°
