RI numbers skipped mysteriously

Hi List,

Has anyone know what are the programs/actions that can increase the next number for RI documents in Sales ?
User have a number, and the next time the user print an Invoice, the system gives another number that is bigger that the first but is not equal to +1, but + another that seems to be random (from 1 to 40... ?).

Any idea ?

I'm not sure if this will help you. But there's a Screen called Next number screen. Type NN(P0002) in the Fast path text box. And then click on the next number setup you need.

Hope this helps.

Did you check if the missing invoice numbers are on the AR side.?? Basically check RPDOC column in F03B11 (RPDCT - "RI") for the missing invoice numbers. If you find it there then they are manually entering invoices on the AR side.

Good Luck

It may be one of many issues.

Check digits may be invoked on your next numbers.
There is an algorythm that runs against the last digit
of the number. The easiest way to tell if check
digits are on is to exclude the last number of the
invoice.

If your are using the system defaults, Sales Order,
Service invoicing, AR all use the same document number
for invoice generation. You can check this out by
looking at F03B11 and seeing if your numbers are
sequential there.

Finally, if someone begins to create invoices and
cancels the activity, this will cause gaps.

Hi jdeman,

Absolutely right. The invoices skipped were there in the AR side, in F03B11, they were entered manually.

Thanks to you.
