Form — Documents Tab
This tab lets you specify the prefix and sequence numbers for all numbers used to identify documents in your inventory system (shipments, receipts, returns, transfers, transfer receipts, adjustments, internal usage transactions, assemblies, and disassemblies).
Document Numbers
Inventory Control assigns a unique number to each document you add. The number is a combination of a prefix you use to identify the transaction type, and a number that Inventory Control assigns sequentially, starting with the number you specify. The default length of each document number is 22 characters (including the prefix).
Length. If your document numbers (for transfers, shipments, receipts, etc.) are less than 22 characters long, edit this field. The maximum length of a document number is 22 characters, including the prefix.
Prefix. Type the prefixes you use in your existing document numbers, or use the default prefixes you see on this tab. Each prefix can be up to six alphanumeric characters.
Next Number. If you do not want to start document numbering at "1" (or if you want to change document numbering at a later time) enter the next number that you want to use. The program increases the number by 1 each time you post a transaction, but you are not forced to use the numbers assigned by the program.
