Hi all,
This morning we posted a purchase order and found out that the number GAF21220040 was skipped.
How is this possible?
How can we solve this?
How can we found out how it occured?
Br,
Edith
Hello,
In number series you can perhaps verify if the number was taken somehow? That indeed is really strange!
Thanks.
How are your number series setup? I know in some companies / countries they may use the same number series for multiple document type. So start by checking your setup.
Go to Purchase & Receivables Setup
GAF21220040 was Deleted after GAF21220041 was created.
How can I see what numbers have been taken?
No, the last number was 39, and after posting a puchase order, the next one was 41.
We have a seperate number series for the posted invoices.
Like what Mathew@Beacon suggested, it could be that that number was taken and then the Invoice was deleted. For instance, I created a new sales order (number is 1002) and then after populating the customer that number is being used. Then I deleted the sales order and created a new one. This is how my number series look like:
Hope it helps.
Hi,Marco Mels This is a possible explenation. But who will tell.
Does anyone has a solution?
Thx! Edith
Yes, disable automatic numbering, assign that missing number to a new invoice and then enable automatic numbering again.
