Hi Community,

I was looking at this video, and I saw this instructor uses %4 and %2 for recurring Journal which allows Navision to change the name of the month with every posting.

I was wondering what other codes are there for us to use?

Can I have the list?

    Josh,

    For Recurring Journals, the Document No. have the ability to be filled in with a formula.

    Document No.: Simple text can be combined with the following text codes to form a number

    series:

    • %1 - The current day number

    • %2 - The current week number

    • %3 - The current month number

    • %4 - The current month name

    • %5 - The current accounting period name

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Steve
