Invoice No. Startposition Field, Vendor Bank Account Table

The position of the invoice number within the reference number can be defined here.

Normally, the vendor's invoice number is listed in the reference number of the deposit slip. Unfortunately there is no standard defining the position in the reference number where this entry must be placed.

If you analyze your vendor's invoices, you will normally find out where the invoice number begins and how many places it uses. The starting position within the reference number and the length of the invoice number can be defined for each bank account.

If you type in the reference number at a later time when processing an invoice, this position entry will allow the vendors invoice number to be automatically transferred.

Example

Vendor 10000 sends you the ESR invoice 833041 with the 27 digit reference number 90 00070 10034 18240 00083 30411.

The invoice no. start position is 21, the invoice no. length is 6.

If you store the start position and length in the bank account information, Microsoft Dynamics NAV can automatically determine the invoice number when the next invoice is read.
