Journal number

Requirement

All entries of accounting transactions that are specified in a general ledger must be numbered in an unbroken sequence.

M3 solution

M3 has one unbroken number series. M3 supports two internal number series:
  • The journal number is a global number series for all accounting entries in M3. The journal number is annual and cannot be configured by the user.
  • Voucher numbers can be grouped into a book of accounts and these groups can all start on 1 each year. These number ranges are configured by the user.
