Number series — fields
| Field | Column | Req. | What it decides |
|---|---|---|---|
| SeriesCode | SeriesCode | Yes | What a setup card points at when it needs a number. |
| Prefix | Prefix | Printed before the number. Keep it short and meaningful: SI, PO, JV. | |
| NextNo | NextNo | Yes | The next number to be issued. Editing it backwards causes duplicates. |
| Increment | Increment | Yes | |
| PaddingWidth | PaddingWidth | Yes |
Give each document type its own series. Sharing one between invoices and credit memos makes the numbering unreadable to an auditor.
