SAP TIP OF THE WEEK (3.2024 EN)

Refer Original Doc to Duplicated Doc.

The functionality of duplicating the original document is used regularly and are the various documents created through this function. With just one click you can save time, reduce manual effort and avoid some mistakes. However, is it possible to distinguish the original document from the duplicate? Yes, it is possible, SAP Business One has developed a function that allows you to create a reference to the original document when creating a duplicate:

When you click on the “Duplicate” option which appears when you press the right button of your mouse in the document, the above message appears, allowing you to create the reference. If your company follows a regular policy on this topic, you can select the “Remember my reply and don’t show it again” checkbox to reject this message in the future.

When you confirm the message, the original document is automatically set as a referenced document in the Accounting tab:

This option is supported not only in Sales and Purchasing documents, as well as in Inventory documents (Goods Issue, Inventory Transfers, and Inventory Transfer Order), Production Order, Inventory Counting, and Inventory Posting.

Available from SAP Business One version 10.0 FP 2011 and from SAP Business One version 10.0 FP 2011, from SAP HANA version.
