Anyone tried to change number range from Year dependent to Year independent

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Anyone tried to change number range from Year dependent to Year independent for new Fiscal Year ?

For example, we are using year dependent at Fiscal Year 2011 and user would like to keep the number running

until used up in Fiscal Year 2012. Can I just add a year 9999 and keep last number to From number for new fiscal year ?

Thanks !

Hi

You should change the number range assignment only at year end with the ending fiscal year as 9999

Hi Sanil ,

That why we are planning to do in next year 2012.

When users completed all the posting on FY 2011, then we capture all the ending number and to be the starting number for year independent.

Is that work ?

Hi,

Addition comment is, it is possible to add year independent number range from last number, if for e.g. current year dependent number range for 2011 is 1000000000 - 1999999999. At 2011 year-end the last number used was 1900000000. Then adding new fiscal year independent number range 9999 can be set up from 1900000001 - 1999999999.

Another scenario is setting up year dependent for 2012 from 1900000001 - 1999999999, then set up year independent for 9999 from 1000000000 - 1999999999 (meaning this number range will be used from 2013 onwards) is also possible.

Kind regards,
