Sequence Configuration

The Sequence Configuration section allows you to define how transaction numbers are auto-generated for different operations within the Warehouse Management System (WMS).

Purpose​

This setting ensures that each transaction (like stock receive or transfer) follows a consistent and traceable numbering format, based on division and transaction type.

Important: If a transaction type is marked as compulsory for sequence creation in the configuration, then it must have a sequence configured before using related transactions. This applies to the following transaction types:

  • Stock Receive
  • Stock Request
  • Stock Adjustment
  • Stock Transfer
  • Location Receive

These transactions will be disabled until a valid sequence is configured.

    • Start Date & End Date – Define the period the sequence will be active.

    • Number Count – Set the number of digits (e.g., 4 digits will give 0001, 0002, ...).

    • Start From – Define the starting number (e.g., 1 or 100).

    • Prefix – Optional prefix added before the number (e.g., "SR-" for Stock Receive).

    • Status – Select whether the sequence is Active or Inactive.

  3. Click the Save button.

Why It Matters​

  • Ensures consistency in document and transaction numbering.
  • Helps in identifying, sorting, and referencing records easily.
  • Prevents duplicate or manual numbering errors.

⚠️ Note: Make sure each combination of Division and Transaction Type has only one active sequence per date range.
