Maintain Number Ranges

In this activity you assign concrete number intervals to the actual and plan document types you created and to those delivered with the system. The number assignment is dependent on the company code and the fiscal year.

Technically, this function is the same as number interval maintenance for local G/L documents.

Actions

Document types which belong together logically should be put together into one group . For example, it is advisable to create all the document types in Profit Center Accounting as a single group.

• Function Group -> Insert

• Function Interval -> Maintain

This function lets you enter number range intervals for additional combinations of company codes and fiscal years for the selected group. You receive the screen for maintaining number range intervals. You can make the necessary entries by using Edit -> Insert year.
