Posted Sales Invoice No. not in sequence

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi experts,

I have a issue here, the user just posted this sales order but the no. is not taking the latest, can someone advise me on this? What is the reason behind?

    What is the way to assign a posted invoice no. before post? I mean I can ask the users to avoid this in future, in case they accidentally do this.

    Be aware that you can have sales orders that have been assigned a posted invoice no. before they are posted. So that can also make it look like they are not in sequence.

    Ok...My point was misguided.

    Is number series code same?

    HI,


    I think I posted Sales Invoice No.S2-402318 a while ago.
    Document numbers are assigned in the order in which the posting was performed, not in the order of posting date.


    For example:

    First, you posted Sales Invoice A with the posting date "7/12/2021" one week ago. Then, you posted Sales Invoice B with the posting date "6/12/2021" yesterday.
    Then the document number of Posted Sales Invoice A will be smaller than the document number of Posted Sales Invoice B.

    I'm happy to be of help.
