    Hi Ramit,

    Indeed there is no purchase order number in the number sequence group. This would require a small customisation when the purchase order is created. The number sequence could be specified on the vendor group.

    Hi Ramit,

    The purpose would be having different number series for posted documents e.g. invoices. I have never used this feature myself as there was no requirement in my implementations to segregate posted document by number series.

    Hi Andre,

    Yes, the number sequence group purpose is to have different number sequence for different documents.

    However, interesting is in the number sequence group, there is no possibility to have purchase order number series.

    I am wondering, why ms has given the possibility to have number sequence group there in po header?

    Hi Ramit,

    The feature was already part back in the early days of Damgaard Axapta. What is the business reason for considering purchase order numbers per vendor or group of vendors?
