Each Purchase Order has its own unique identifying number, based on a sequential series. When entering a new Purchase Order, the next number in the series is used. If required, you can have a number of such sequences running concurrently, perhaps representing different years, different departments or different order types.

Use this setting to define these sequences, or Number Series. The different series should not overlap. If no Number Series have been defined, Purchase Order Numbers will start at 1 and continue consecutively.

When entering Purchase Orders, the next number in the first Number Series entered to this setting will be used as a default; change to any other Number Series using 'Paste Special'.

On double-clicking 'Number Series - Purchase Orders' in the 'Settings' list, the following window appears:

Enter each new Number Series on the first blank line and, when finished, click the [Save] button in the Button Bar to save the changes. To close the window without saving changes, click the close box.

The N/L field common to all Number Series settings is not used in this instance.
