Different number series and printing reports

finder

Hi,

I'm a quite beginner in Navision and therefore I have some questions that I don't know how to solve.
1)We have situation where our customer wants to use different number series for sales invoices per department. Is it possible to assign it using responsibility center (on invoice) or user code who is creating invoice (the one who has logged in)? Is it possible in standard NAV?
2)We want to print sales invoices using different reports. Is it possible to define it by number series in standard NAV?

Thanks in advance,
Anti

Hi,

You can have different number series in the Sales Invoices.

You can link several number series to one number series. Select the number series which you have assigned for Posted Sales Invoices. You can see this in the sales & receivable setup. Click to go into the number series window. In the right bottom of the page you will see "series". If you click you can see the "relationship options". Select the additional number series here.

In the sales invoice or orders, in the header part, enable the "posting No. Series" field. When you want to post you can select the no. series that you wan and post it. But you have to be careful in selecting, wrong number can result with an invoice with wrong number series.

Thanks, I have noticed this relationship option and it's working. Only problem is that our customer has many departments and it's very annoying to choose number series manually and it will leave possibility to make mistakes by users. We are looking for a possibility to fill this field automatically (depending from department).

To assign the nos. series automatically you need C/AL code customization.

Thanks, that exactly I wanted to know. Will the same reply go also to my other question about printing sales invoices with different reports. Is this possible also with C/AL customization only?

It depends on how you want to select the reports. But in generally, yes, you need C/AL code customization (or form customization).
