Extend Configuration Limiting Duplicate Invoice Numbers to Additional Invoice Types

34 votes

VIP currently will check to prevent duplicate AP invoice numbers via the following flags:

1. CFGCheckDuplicateInvNoInOps
2. CFGCheckDuplicateInvNoInAct

These flags control validation of invoice numbers for invoices created in the "Voyage Other Revenue and Expenses" form, "Profit Share Distribution" form or the "Transaction Data Entry" form. The available options are: N No validation, Y No duplicate numbers allowed for the same vendor, A No duplicate numbers allowed for the same vendor within the same Account Period.

The request is to extend similar support for additional AP invoice types, notably Bunker Survey Costs and other high-use AP types.

Agree. All invoice types shell be considered, Also would be good to have verification on Approval Stage

needs to also work for AP when cargo is "FOB/Delivered" ("Other Info" Tab in the CARGO)

System is treating same counterparty as different company(s) when different address type(s) enabled (W, O, C, A, etc) = different Company No(s)
Suggest to align the company no. or group the address types to avoid duplicate entry created under different address type.
