Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Business Configuration work center.
- Go to the Overview view.
- Search for: Document Numbering Formats for Customer Invoicing
- Click on Define document numbering formats for India
- For Company XXX, Fiscal Year as Suffix is maintained. (XXX represents the company ID)
- Go to the General Ledger work center.
- Go to the Set of Books and Assigned Companies view.
- For Company XXX, Set of Books ABCD. (ABCD represents the Set of Books ID)
- Edit Fiscal Years
- For example: Fiscal Year 2023 - is with First Day Of Fiscal Year: 04/01/2023 and Last Day Of Fiscal Year: 03/31/2024
Cause
For Country India the Fiscal Year as Suffix is from 1st April of a year to 31st March of the next year and not on the settings maintained in the Set of Books.
Therefore, if the indicator Fiscal Year as Suffix is active for the Document Numbering rule, the Fiscal Year is used as Suffix.
Example:
- In the document numbering formats for India you activated the Fiscal Year as Suffix indicator for your rule.
- You created an Invoice on the 01.05.2024 with the Tax Country India.
- The Invoice created will have the ID XX-XX-2023 since it falls into the Fiscal Year 2023 (1st April of 2023 to 31st March 2024) for India.
For all other countries the Calendar Year is used as Suffix and the Indicator is also named in the Document Numbering Format Rules as Calendar Year as Suffix for all other countries.
Resolution
This is a standard system behavior.
