What is the significance of GST reference number sequence setup in India GST Update-1 & Update-2?

Dear all,

GST reference number sequence setup was introduced in India GST update-1. But it was not mandatory to set it up.

But in Update-2, it has been made mandatory to set number sequence in this setup. Following is the snapshot of that setup:

I found that after invoicing, numbers generated from this setup appear on the 'Invoice number' field in GSTR1 & GSTR2 excel reports instead of actual invoice number generated from a transaction like project invoice or purchase invoice.

Following is snapshot of GSTR1 report:

So how can somebody browse a transaction in AX after seeing this number in excel because I couldn't find this number anywhere else on any form as a reference to any invoice.

If it is not present on any form, then what is the significance of this field?

    This feature seems to allow you to attach a unique numerator that flags each GST related transaction (whether it is a sale, credit, reversal etc.)

    I can guess there may be regulatory requirement to uniquely enumerate the details tax ledger? maybe report by transaction using this numerator?

    But can this enumerated number can be seen on any form or not for the sake of reference. Otherwise, what is the use of this number?
