To define order numbers

To define order numbers, take the following steps:

1. Create a number group, by using the Number Groups (tcmcs0151m000) session.
2. Define the series within the number group, by using the First Free Numbers (tcmcs0150m000) session.
3. Assign the number group to the order type or record type, by using the related Parameters session or other session.

   Depending on the document type or record type:

   • Start the Purchase Offices (tdpur0112m000) session to assign the series to the purchase orders and the other purchase-document types.
   • Start the Sales Offices (tdsls0512m000) session to assign the series to the sales orders and the other sales-document types.
   • Select the correct series when you create a new record such as a business partner, an address, or a contact.
