Hi Andrie,

Though accounting is not forte, I think you could use the reference number
field to store the external invoice id and let the invoiceId be the
system's auto-generated value.

HTH
Thanks and regards,

Hello Michael,
Thank you for reply.
Can you suggest any best practices when having multiple invoices and at
the end of the (fiscal) year one wishes to reset the invoice counter?
Is there an option in ofbiz to do that?
Thanks,
A.

Hi Andrei,

if you load data through XML files, there is no application logic in
play. It's a plain import to the database.

So if you load invoices with the same invoice id (which is the primary
key for the invoice table), the second dataset will overwrite the first.

The mentioned setting will not help with the problem during import.
Because of the primary key, you cannot have the same invoice id twice
so *I guess* the setting will generate an invoice id with the year and
id (like 2021-1 or similar). But I'm not sure though...

Hello everyone,

I want to import some of my old invoices into ofbiz, and some of
those invoices have

the same id, but were created in different time periods, different
years.

So, for example, i have *EU-1 *created in 2019**and *EU-1 *created in
2020.

When importing the xml file with data for company, invoices etc.,
only one of those two duplicates is imported, without erros from
ofbiz's side.

Have anybody tried this in the Accounting Preferences by set the *Old
Invoice Sequence Enum ID *to *Restart on Fiscal Year (no gaps, per
org, reset to one each year) *??

Thank you,

A.
