When you transfer an order to invoice in SOP, can you change the invoice number to be different thatn the order number?

When you setup the various sales document types, you defines order and invoice ID's and its number ranges. Here is a number of questions:
(1) How does the order numbers look like - provide an example please
(2) How does the invoice number look like - provide an example please
(3) Do you transfer the sales order immedetely to an invoice?
Yes, we can. You may need to do two things:
1. Create an Invoice Document ID, which will be used when you transfer the order to invoice.
2. Open Sales Order Setup from Tools -> Setup -> Sales -> Sales Order Processing -> Sales Document Setup -> Order.
3. Set the newly created Invoice Document ID in "Use Fullfilment Order/Invoice ID".
Now, whenever you transfer an Order, this will be the Invoice Document ID.
Hope that helps.
Hi Joann,
You can. But it requires the user who'll transfer the order to invoice access to the Type ID setup window that is assigned to where you transfer invoices.
If you look at the Sales Order Setup of the Type ID used for your Orders, there is a specified Invoice ID where the Order will use to transfer the invoices to.
If you pull up that Sales Invoice Setup, you'll see the Invoice ID Next Number, which is the one that will be used on your next transaction.
You'll need to have the use go though the setup information BEFORE they do the transfer.
It's quite tricky - but can be done.
