create a document with the same number

navisionerin

hello! Can i create a document with the same number?

The document numbers in NAV are internal numbers, they serve only for internal document numeration purpose. They are supposed to be unique. They are not supposed to match the original invoice document number.

NAV has a separate field to keep vendor invoice numbers. On purchases side it is called "Vendor Invoice No.", the name is self-explanatory I'd say.

There are settings in Purchases & Payables setup to force users to always enter the "Vendor Invoice No.", and to make sure it is unique (within one Vendor of course)

You need to do a Customisation.
