Hello,

 

We are required to audit our invoice number sequence and accommodate/explain the missing numbers in the invoice numbering sequence. I there a way to find out why there is a gap in numbers and maybe even justify this gap?

 

Thanks,

Arno

Arno,

If you have that requirement, you should implement and use the legal numbering for Invoices.

Standard Epicor invoice numbering allows invoices to be deleted after being created (if not posted), and does not retain anything about the deleted invoices.  This is fine in most cases, in the US.  But I understand that some entities enforce additional rules.

Alternative, one could add customizations to track deleted invoices.

Hey PJackson,

 

Thanks for the reply. I’ll find out which direction we will go but at least we will have options.

 

Thanks!

Dear Arno,

Depending on the specific legal requirements of the jurisdiction, you could set up BPMs to (1) throw an exception on  PO deletion and collect a UD log of PO line deletions, (2) throw an exception on PO deletions and on PO line deletions and collect a UD log of all quantity reductions on existing PO lines, etc.  HTH
