    Note Note

    If you make changes to the document header (such as to the posting date or fiscal year) by changing the posting date, you can no longer use the old document number.

    If you use internal document number assignment, the system changes the document number as soon as a new fiscal year results from changes made to the document header.

    If document numbers are assigned externally, you have to assign a new number yourself.
