    Hi, do you have any customizations on posting?

    I've had this happen once before, after using one of the posting events.
    If there is customization, I think you can copy a Sandbox environment and debug in it.
    If this is a standard issue, I suggest you submit a Service Request to Microsoft.

    Hope this info will help.

    Thanks.

    Hello Zhu,

    We changed the number on the document alredy posted and everthing went back to normal. Still dont know why a purchase order ended up with that particular number, might be a customization or something from the native system.

    Thanks for the help

    You will have to ask your developer for assistance in order to be able to change the values in the posted documents.

    Ask your partner if they can help you.
