    You can go to Tools>>Setup>>Sales>>  Sales Order Processing and then go to the Sales Invoice Setup.  Then bring up the Invoice ID  and on the right hand side is the pre-defined format that it is supposed to be printting to.  Then you can look and see if it has been customzied by looking in Report Writer or by going to Tools>>Customization>>Customization Maintenance and see if you have a customized Report (example:  SOP Blank Invoice) in the list.  If it has been customized and you wanted to make changes you would then go into Report Writer.  But be careful if this is a shared dictionary that everyone is using you don't want to be in there or you can blow up the Great Plains dictionary.

    Hi Barbara,

    When you say 'I see multiple invoices created by RW', where do 'see' them... In GP or are there just different versions on paper ?

    Alternate Forms/Reports security can be found in GP under : Microsoft Dynamics GP menu >> Tools >> Setup >> System >> Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports

    The best tool to determine which report version is actually using is the Support Debugging Tool, because it can help to track down with the security profiler what alternate version is currently assigned to which user. GP security normaly allows you either the regular version or the alternate (modified) version, but if you use also Project Accounting, then things become even worse, because you then get 4 choices of report security...

    Hope this helps
