Configuring Purchase Order Numbering

Overview
Customize your PO numbering format (prefix, separator, digit count) to match your company’s document scheme.

Steps

1. Go to Settings → Purchase Settings.

2. Under Purchase Order Prefix, enter your desired prefix (e.g. “PO”).

3. Set Separator (e.g. “#”) and Number Digits (e.g. 3 for 001, 002).

4. Review the Example on the right.

5. Click Save.

Tips

• Use a prefix that distinguishes POs from invoices (e.g. “PO” vs. “BILL”).

• Keep digit count high enough for future growth (e.g. 4 digits for up to 9999 orders).

Troubleshooting

• Prefix not applied? Refresh the PO creation form.

• Number collisions? Ensure no manual overrides conflict with auto‑numbering.
