Invoice numbering

Requirement

In Argentina, invoices must be numbered per facility, customer VAT class, and document type.

M3 solution

Users can specify the facility, the VAT class, and the invoice type in these programs:

  • 'Customer Invoice. Enter Manual' (ARS120)
  • 'Fixed Asset. Sell' (FAS130)

The facility, the VAT class, and the invoice type can be automatically retrieved by these programs:

  • 'Internal Invoice. Create' (MFS100)
  • 'TA Invoice. Create Proposal' (TAS130)
  • GLS040 for customer orders that have been split into several invoices with different due dates and if method 0-From number series 4 in (MFS165) has been selected in the Add/No. series field in 'Payment Term. Open Details' (CRS074/E).

Configuration guidelines

See ‘Define Number Series’ in the M3 Business Engine User Documentation Infocenter.
