You can use the following enhancements to official document numbering (ODN) with number groups for selected countries and application areas:
Customer-specific classes
You can use customer-specific classes to adapt the creation of official document numbers to your requirements. If ODN is activated for a country in the standard system, you can replace the standard class with a customer-specific class. If ODN is not activated for a country in the standard system, you can activate ODN by assigning a customer-specific class to the country. In the customer-specific class, you can define that the business place is used to determine the relevant number range.
Document class determination using sub-IDs
You can define sub-IDs that enable you to adapt document class determination for ODN to your requirements. Sub-IDs allow you to control document class determination at a very detailed level based on the values of certain document attributes.
Chronological numbering
You can activate chronological numbering at country or document class level.
