Doument types - Number ranges

[Former Member]

hello,

i would like to know if we can have different numbers series for same document type in diff company codes.

For e.g Doc type : DR ( customer invoice) , we have 4 company codes.

Can we have number ranges 18, 19, 20 , 21 generating AR customer invoices for each of the company codes respectively,

It may sound a silly question , but please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Document Types

transaction code-oba7

In this activity you create document types for customer, vendor and general ledger business transactions in Financial Accounting. Document types differentiate business transactions and control document filing.

number range

transaction code-fbn1 (customer-tc-xdn1 and vendor-tc-xkn1)

A range of numbers that you can assign to business objects (or their sub-objects) of the same type.

Examples of such objects are business partners, G/L accounts, orders, posting documents and materials.

Each number range has one or more number range intervals and a number assignment type.

There are the following types of number assignment:

Internal -

When storing a data record, the R/3 System assigns a sequential number, which lies in the relevant number range interval.

External -

The number is assigned by the user or by an external system, both of which must ensure that the number lies in the relevant number range interval.

Hi,

If all the company codes are in the same client, it is not possible to have different number objects/number ranges for a document type.

However if each company code has a unique client, then it is possible.

Hope this will help you.

hi,

Document Type

The document type classifies the accounting documents. It is stored in the document header.

Attributes that control the entry of the document, or which are themselves noted in the document, are defined for each document type. In particular, the number range assigned to the associated documents is defined on the basis of the document type.

Document Number Ranges

A number range must be assigned to each document type in the SAP System. Via the document types, you distinguish the postings according to the different business transactions, for example customer payment, vendor credit memo, and so on. To store documents separately according to document types, you must assign a separate number range to each document type, for example to invoices or to credit memos.

In the following activities:

You define your document number ranges.

You can determine which intervals of document number ranges are to be copied from one company code into another.

You can determine which intervals of document number ranges are to be copied from one fiscal year into another.

Document type number ranges is depend on client level. You can also make your own document type and ranges for different company code. I would like to advice to copy standard document type.

Hi

fin docs are at company code level and year dependent you can define the num ranges and intervels as you wish. Only thing you have to ensure that a proper doc is assigned for the transaction in question and number range is valid

go to transaction fb1n. And create number ranges to company codes. Then assign this ranges to documents in FBKP.

Example

Document type HI Number range 01

Number range 01 for society 1000 --- 1000000 to 2000000

Number range 01 for society 2000 --- 3000000 to 4000000

Document types are defined at client level.

I think it is not possible.
