On screen SYS800-04 you can alter the last invoice # used ... you might want to increment it a chunk at some end fiscal moment to make it easier for some people to see what got posted which month. There's also something there about document sequencing, and post shipment invoicing.
Here's the Help on that field
Last Invoice Number Used (8,0):
This field displays the last invoice number assigned by the system during billing (BIL500). Be CAREFUL if you have to change this parameter. Since the system adds one (1) to this number when assigning the next number, changing it back could cause invoice number duplication later, or create unused invoice numbers. This number is only utilized when the company/prefix document sequencing flag is "blank".
I believe this data is stored some place in the ZPA file which people can get at other ways, depending on how your security is setup. See if you can access BIL520IN in ZPA ... I think that is the relevant parameter file key.
You do NOT want this to be a negative number, unless you truely want your Billing Invoices to be negative numbers. When it gets to all 9's it should wrap around to 0 then 1 (You may not want an invoice # that is all zeros) Are you at risk of running out of numbers here? There are ways to structure your customer orders so as to have consolidation of your shipping onto less invoices to the same customers, depending on the nature of your customers.
We have modified our billing software, but not in this respect ... the main reasons for our modifications were how data to appear on the invoices, and to fix a systemic SSA bug with respect to rounding.

Hi all, Using BPCS 4.05 and for some really weird reason some invoices have come through on the RAR file field RINVC with a negative on them. They appear to be using sequencing to get the invoice numbers. Is there anywhere in BPCS that possibly determines there is a duplicate invoice with the number and then reverses it to make it unique. Any ideas would be great.
