Provisional transaction sequence numbering

Another feature associated with provisional postings, but which can be used independently, is the ability to assign sequence numbers to transactions.

This is a useful feature which helps to ensure data integrity. Two types of sequence number can be assigned:

transaction sequence numbers which are assigned when transactions are posted. These can be assigned to provisional transactions when they are posted as provisional, or only when they are posted as permanent postings. This is determined by the Hard Posting Only option on Ledger Setup (LES).
daybook sequence numbers which are assigned when transactions are printed on the Daybook Listing (DBL) and the provisional transactions are changed to permanent postings.

The journal reference on recalled provisional transactions cannot be amended. This ensures that the sequence numbering within registration date is maintained.

You can also record a registration date using Ledger Sequences (LEQ), which overrides the normal entry date for a journal with a 'user defined' date stamp.
