SAP Business One 2007 – How to continue legacy system invoice number sequences
Tuesday, July 21st, 2009
In some cases a company wishes to continue A/R invoice numbering from a legacy system in SAP Business One. In order to do this you would open Document Numbering under Administration >> System Initialization >> Document Numbering.
