Fine Tune Access to Numbering Series

Sweet or salty? Tough decision, right? This topic can develop a broad discussion, but instead of that let’s take an easier route and talk about a recent enhancement in SAP Business One that offers much more flexibility and allows you to adjust user authorizations for numbering series by defining additional authorization groups. Growing from 10 to 30, the use of up to 30 different groups of numbering series supports the definition of a larger set of more precise user permissions:

Once you’ve made each numbering series available to your group, you can grant each user the relevant permission for the various groups and get a more accurate permission assignment:

Example of a possible application: Imagine that your company has two sales teams for different markets. In this sense, it has defined two numbering series for the issuance of invoices to customers, one national and the other European. It will be able to go further and restrict the access of the national sales team exclusively to the national numbering series and, in turn, of the Community sales team to the European sales series, thus avoiding the mixing of different documents in the same series.

This functionality of 30 number series groups is available in SAP Business One 10.0 FP2202 and SAP Business One 10.0 FP2202, version for SAP HANA.
