Store Ref Numbers
The Store Ref Numbers screen allows users to setup customized Invoice Reference Numbers, Purchase Order Numbers, and Supplier Return Reference Numbers.
Once a store has been added in the Store Record page, a listing will display in the Store Ref Numbers for that location. Each store will always default to starting all reference numbers at '"000000000" (there are nine characters required in all reference numbers on Counter Control). Many multi-store locations adjust the reference numbers so it is easier to distinguish between store locations.
For example, a 4-store chain might setup their reference numbers as follows:
Store 1: 100000000
Store 2: 200000000
Store 3: 300000000
Store 4: 400000000
Another example: a 20-store chain might start their reference numbers with the store location as the first 2 characters:
Store 01: 010000000
Store 14: 140000000, etc.
Edit: select a store and click edit to adjust the reference numbers.
Refresh: click refresh to re-load the screen (this may occur when there are multiple changes made using the Edit button, or if a user has the screen open during a regular business day).
Done: click Done to finish and leave the screen. The user will need to log out and back in.
**Please note: it is highly recommended that users make this change when all other users are off the system.
