Accounting documents using external number ranges
Help Document

Accounting documents using external number ranges:

For external number ranges, mapping will be created for accounting documents numbers in activity "Mapping of Accounting Documents using External Number Ranges" in phase "Preprocessing programs DURING system lock" based on the prefix given for each impacted number range number, for details please refer to the documentation of "Mapping of Accounting Documents using External Number Ranges".

The old number range number should be adjusted in a way that, after adding the prefix, the accounting documents should lie in the respective intervals. Example: Accounting document number 10001 has originally been posted in year 2010 and is now going to be changed to year 2009, which causes a duplicate record. If you provide a prefix (for example 'SAP'), the document number is changed accordingly (to SAP0010001). If the existing document number already has the maximum allowed length, the prefix replaces the first digits of the existing number. For example, if the document number is 1000000001 and the prefix is 'SAP', then the new document number is 'SAP0000001'.

Note:

This approach will create gaps in FI document numbering.

All above suggestions must be agreed with your auditors before you proceed with the conversion.
