3033170 - Supplier Invoice ID not as per numbering format

Symptom

You notice that Invoice ID is not starting with the starting document number maintained in the BC activity 'Document Numbering Formats for Supplier Invoicing'.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Cause

Currently if one table entry already exists for the combination of company, document type and any separator then a second entry with same combination will not take the defined starting document number rather it will pick from where it was left for the previous combination.

Resolution

This is a known restriction issue in the system. In normal circumstances, the system should not allow a second entry for the same combination of company and document type. However in the current version this restriction is not applied.

This causes the newly created table entry to be ignored. This is planned to be adjusted in a future release of the system.
