Shipping No. on Sales Invoice

deepblue · 2007-01-08

Hello,

In some Sales Invoices, I have the field "Shipping No." filled with an existing values. So when I try to post this invoice an error message saying that "Sales shippment header No. xxxxx already exists". Note that the field is not visible in the form, but when I zoom (Ctrl+F8) i find that it's not empty. Have some an idea about how this field can be filled?

Thank u!

I think the first question is: what are you trying to do?

Why are you putting the shipping number on the sales invoice?

I want to know why sometimes I find this field automatically filled in Sales Invoices. In form 43 Sales Invoice, the field is invisible.

add it to the header - i won't be invisible then.

perhaps someone is selecting
Post -> Ship
instead of
Post -> Ship and Invoice

If you're in form 43 (Sales Invoice), you only get the option to Post...

It might be the case where the copy document function is not clearing out the Shipping No. field when you're copying from a sales order to sales invoice.

Ahh - I didn't see the Sales Invoice part.

The copy doc feature is worth checkin - are you using this???
