PO NUMBERING SETUP

Posted on by 1,135

The Purchase Order field allows for 10 characters by default in the Purchase Order Maintenance.  If I try and set the Auto Numbering using the Last PO Number in the PO Setup, only 6 characters are available.  How can I set the last PO number to use all 10 characters?

    RE: PO NUMBERING SETUP

    Hi, 

    The only way that you can do that, is changing the Mask property of every screen that has the purchase order field to 10 characters. Example: UUUUUUUUUU.

    Try this:

    • Change the customization level to all users.
    • Open PO Setup screen, and select customize mode.
    • Change the MASK option of the Last PO Number field to 9999999999
    • Save the customization and close the screen
    • Open again the screen and change the last por number.
    • Do the steps 3 and 4 on every screen that use the PO Number.

    Regards.
