Supplier purchase order: previous numbering and adjustment of the next number
To create a supplier purchase order with the previous year’s numbering, please follow the steps below:
- Go to Settings (at the top and far right of your screen).
- Click on the Numbering tab.
- In the “Supplier Purchase Order Year” field (YYYY/000001), enter the previous year (e.g., 2024).
Now, imagine you have issued 10 supplier purchase orders and then deleted one. If you don’t take precautions, the system will automatically assign number 11 to your next supplier purchase order. To avoid creating gaps in your numbering (e.g., supplier purchase order 9 followed by supplier purchase order 11), simply enter the number 10 in the “Next supplier purchase order number” field. This way, your numbering sequence will remain logical and uninterrupted!
