How to Adjust the Logistic Sequence Numbers

MKG registers a unique number, a sequence number, for various processes. The logistics sequence numbers, also known as order numbers, include the quote series and the calculation series in addition to the order series. You can automate this numbering, but you can also enter it manually every year. In this article you can read how to adjust the logistic sequence numbers manually.

 

After you have created a new fiscal year in MKG, you can adjust the logistic sequence numbers. During the initial setup of the database, a specific method was chosen, in which in some cases the year number (or only the last two digits) is included in the series. Adjusting this order numbering is necessary to ensure that a fiscal year transition runs smoothly. This action is optional/moment critical.

 

Automate Logistic Sequence Numbering
MKG has number series for the various processes that may or may not be fiscal year dependent. You can automate the logistic sequence numbering, so you do not have to enter it manually every year. Perform this action before creating the new fiscal year. In this article you will read how to automate logistic sequence numbering.

 

 

1. Go to the Process Numbering Tab

You manage the numbering of the logistics processes in the Administration Settings. After opening the module, you will arrive at the 'General' tab. Select the current fiscal year and go to the 'Process Numbering' tab. On this tab you will find the logistic sequence numbers for Sales, Purchase, Production and Other.

 

2. Select the Newly  Created Fiscal Year

Select the newly created fiscal year. The 'Process Numbering' tab is now empty. Do you want to automate this process numbering? In the article How to Automate your Process Numbering you can read how to do that.

 

3. Enter the New Sequence Numbers

Now enter the sequence numbers of the new fiscal year. Use the Sequence no. column if you want to keep adjusting the numbering manually every year. Enter the maximum number of characters allowed at Length. Check 'Fiscal Year-dependent' if the processes are fiscal year dependent.

. The logistic sequence numbers are now set up for the new fiscal year.

 

 

Please note!
You open fiscal years per administration. If you use more than one administration, you must perform this action for each administration.

 

Checklist Fiscal Year Transition | While executing a fiscal year transition, in today's administrative systems, actions that only occur once a year still have to be performed. These actions cause questions, or worse, are not performed at the most appropriate time. To prevent these questions and to ensure that the fiscal year transition runs as smoothly as possible, this checklist is intended for those who coordinate a fiscal year transition with MKG software.
