Configuration of the number ranges
Object: the Object column lists all objects for which the number ranges can be configured within Onventis.
Template: in the template you can specify the desired number structure.
Example 1:
the order numbers should have 8 digits and start with 65
To do this, make the following entry in the Template column:
65{Nr6} = 65000001 Order number on the first order created
Structure:
65 = the leading number
{Nr6} = number of digits with which the number is to be padded
Example 2:
The purchase orders should have 8 digits, start with the organizational unit of the ordering party and be separated by a hyphen.
To do this, make the following entry in the Template column:
{OrgUnit}-{Nr5} = 450-00001 Order number of the first order created
Structure:
{OrgUnit} = organizational unit as leading number, in the example = 450
{Nr5} = number of digits with which the number is to be padded
Current number: in the column Current number you can see the number currently assigned by Onventis for the associated object. For example, the value 22 in the Address object provides information about the number of addresses entered in Onventis (22). The count is performed automatically by Onventis. Please note that deleted records are also counted, i.e. in the case of addresses, there could be only 11 addresses in Onventis, which would mean that again 11 records have been deleted.
Reset at the beginning of the year: if you activate this option, the number of the corresponding object will be reset on January 1st of the following year. Onventis starts counting again, beginning always with the initial number.
Initial number: in this field you specify the number with which Onventis should start counting the associated objects. In the above example, the orders were preset with 1, the corresponding number is 65000001. If you were to preset the initial number with 0, the first order number created would be 650000.
