Explain the Document Method ?

Answer Posted / tgs100

Question is not clear. If it is related to document sequence numbering method, there here is a short answer.
1. Set the profile option "Sequence Numbering" at the application or responsibility or user level to "Partially Used". You can also select "Always used" if you want to enforce sequencing to ALL the documents in an application. If "Always used", we can not save a transaction if sequence numbering is not defined for application-category-ledger combination.
2. Create a sequence with starting number and sequence type. sequence type is automatic/manual/gapless. Automatic type will automatically creates unique sequence numbers, but system does not ensure "gapless". For manual type, the user should manually enter the sequence number. System only ensures the unique sequence and does not enforce continuity and gapless. Gapless numbering enforces gapless apart from unique sequence. If set to "Gapless", system does lot of validations before sequence is generated (I think, it creates audit details also, but not sure), hence there may be performance issue.
3. Assign Sequence. Here you assign the sequence created in the prev step to application-category-ledger combination. For example you can assign a sequence to Payables-Standard Invoices-Vision Operations Ledger. (There are two methods - Automatic and Manual. Automatic means creating payable documents through concurrent process and manual means creating documents manually).
In GL, there are accounting and reporting sequences which I will explain separately.
