  • Key Concepts: 
    Numerator is a feature in SAP Business One (SBO) that allows users to assign unique numbers to documents, such as invoices, orders, and delivery notes. This helps to keep track of documents and ensure accuracy in the system. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the numerator feature in SBO, users must first set up a numerator series. This is done by going to Administration > Setup > Numerator Series. Here, users can create a new series and assign it a name, format, and starting number. Once the series is created, it can be used to assign unique numbers to documents. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting up a numerator series, it is important to choose a format that will be easy to understand and remember. For example, if you are creating an invoice series, you may want to use the format “INV-####” where “####” represents the unique number assigned to each invoice.
