Billing number range with invoice ranges
Provided that the invoicing areas are activated, an invoicing area can be stored in the customer (but also vendor) contact role (customer details business object). This invoicing area is pre-assigned directly when outgoing invoices are created for this customer.
If you want your billing document numbers to have "speaking names", you can add the placeholders for the billing area number or the billing area abbreviation to the corresponding number ranges.
You can also define billing number ranges in direct 1:1 dependency on billing areas. This allows you to generate consecutive billing numbers for the respective billing area.
To do this, create a user-defined number range as described above by clicking on the "Add" button. In the following form, select one of your billing areas, define the format and save your entries.
