Symptom
For Official Document Numbering (ODN), the system is assigning the same reference number to both the customer invoice and the corresponding cancellation invoice.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Navigate to "Display Billing Documents" App.
- Select the document with the number ABC. (ABC represents the Invoice Document ID)
- Open the document and click on "Display Header Details" icon.
- Verify the reference number: XYZ. (XYZ represents the Reference Number ID)
- Navigate to Process Flow tab
- Open the corresponding cancellation invoice DEF (DEF represents the Invoice Cancellation Document ID)
- Click on "Display Header Details".
- Observe that the reference number is also XYZ.
Cause
System is designed in such a way that both the invoice and the corresponding cancellation invoice share the same reference number for ODN.
Resolution
This is the current system behavior, where both invoice and cancellation invoice utilize the same document numbering rule.
Therefore no further configuration changes are required as this is the intended functionality.
