The following information is relevant only to Chile, Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Mexico.

Use this function to create legal documents such as invoices and credit memos that include the fiscal document number known as Folio.

Documents created with a Folio number have two numbers:

  • The internal number defined in document numbering (see   Administration   System Initialization   Document Numbering  )

  • The Folio number that you can define using this function or when you create the document.

Note Note

Only documents without folio numbers can be canceled. On the other hand, you cannot assign folio numbers to already canceled documents and corresponding cancellation documents.
