Setting Up Transaction Sequence Numbering

The following steps are required to define and apply transaction sequence numbers:

1. Create an analysis dimension to maintain the transaction sequence numbers.  Analysis dimensions are created using Analysis Dimensions Setup (ND) Click here to see the screenshot .

       a. Assign this analysis dimension to one of ten analysis dimensions used to analyze the Ledger entity (901) in Analysis Structure Setup (NS) Click here to see the screenshot .

       b. Identify this analysis dimension in the Transactions Dimension field on Ledger Setup (LS) Click here to see the screenshot.

2. Define a sequence number code for each group of sequence numbers you want to assign to transactions. Sequence number codes are defined using Ledger Sequences Setup (LSS).

3. Assign the transaction sequence codes to the type of transactions to be sequenced:

    a. If transaction sequence numbers are required for transactions posted automatically by other posting functions, for example, Payment Run, assign the transaction sequence code to the system function in Ledger Setup.

    b. If automatic sequence numbers are required for Ledger Entry or Ledger Import journals, assign the transaction sequence code to relevant journal types using Journal Types Setup (JT) Click here to see the screenshot.
