    If you have trouble finding the problem, it is recommended to ask a developer to debug it.
     
    Thanks.

    It is likely that the general journal template or batch hasn't been set up correctly/fully. You could go to the below page to check if no series is missing and check the batches if the value is missing. 
     
     
    If all setup is correct, there might another place asking for the default no. series but it has not been populated.

    Hi
    According to our colleague, you can test it on a new document, or validate that it does not occur in another order.
    By any chance, do you have any development around these functionalities?

    It might be worth creating a new sales order with the same information and posting that one if the error persists and the suggestions below haven't worked. Or, do you encounter this error message on all orders?

    I have checked
    In the Inspection Page the Posting Number series is attach
     
    Sales invoice and posted sales invoice number series is different.
    But i am facing the error regarding
    "Document No. must have a Value in the General Journal Line"
     
    Any Idea?

    Hi
    Are you running a shipment or an invoice?
    Could you check the call stack and see more details of the error?

    Hi, hope the following helps as well.
    Dynamics 365 Business Central: Manual number for Posted Sales invoice and Posted Purchase invoice (Use the same number in Sales Order and Posted Sales Invoice?)
     
     
    Thanks.

    I agree with KasparsSemjonovs, I would check if you have a value in the posting no. series field. You can check in the page inspection pane:
