Merry Christmas! I hope everyone is doing well.

We've run into some trouble with the automatically-generated document numbers (when importing batches and such). Adagio automatically uses YY-Batch-Entry. However, our fiscal year starts in November, which means there's overlap and therefore conflict in the new fiscal year before the calendar year rolls over. I keep getting the error "Document # already exists) when importing, or posting errors when I try to post automatically generated writeoff batches. This means I have to manually input or update all batch numbers, and it's time-consuming.

Would it be possible to set it so that it's FYY (fiscal year) instead of YY (calendar year) by default? This would make it so there's never a conflict in automatically generated document numbers.

Alternatively, there could be an option to manually change what data is used to automatically generate document numbers.

Cheers,
Stephanie

Hi Holiday and Merry Christmas to you too.

Which program(s) and batch type(s) are giving you these errors? Are they frequently used batch types like invoices, or less used batch types like adjustments?

I suppose that if you have a more active fiscal year for the last two months of a calendar year as compared to the previous fiscal year, you can catch up to the batch numbers at the end of December.

I will forward your request to R&D for some alternate way to determine the default document number.

It's Adagio AR. It happens on adjustment batches a lot and now invoice batches this year - you are correct that we've been doing a lot more invoice batches this year.

Thanks!
