Hi Experts,

In AX 2012 R2, I have to introduce a process which can generate different invoice numbers on the basis of some scenarios. For e.g. If the site of the transaction is Delhi the invoice number should be BTD-### or if the site is Bangalore the invoice number should be BTB-###.

Please let me know if there is any standard reference in place so that I can check or please help with some suggestions.

Thanks in advance

Rishi

Hello Rishi,

This site dependent invoice numbering is not supported in the standard. You would have to develop this (at least in the standard application).

However, I'm not sure whether there is a local feature available for example for India, China or the country in which you operate AX that can do that already out of the box. Please double check with a local expert or developer before making an adjustment.

Best regards

Ludwig

Hello Ludwig,

Thanks for the suggestion.

Can we achieve this using number sequence group?

Hi Rishi,

Number sequence groups can be used to setup multiple number sequences for invoices. It is explained on the next blog: dynamics365ax2012.blogspot.com/.../how-to-assign-number-sequence-for-sales.html

However, it is standard related to a setup as default on a customer. It can be overridden on the sales order header. To make it site or region specific, there would be a need for a customization. In that case, you also have to ensure that the order will be completely delivered from a certain site. In the standard application, items can be delivered from several different sites/warehouses.

Hello Rishi,

In the customer details form there is the possibility to set up a number sequence group (CustTable.numbersequencegroup). In this way you can assign your own number sequences to certain customers (but also individual sales orders: salesTable.numbersequencegroup).

Maybe this will help you.

Kind regards,

Heinz
