Global Configuration > Authorisation Slip Settings

A new Next Print Reference Number for the Active Financial Year field has been introduced to enhance the sequential print reference process in Central Authorisation.

Key Enhancements:

Configurable Print Reference Number:

• A sequential whole number (1–999) is now used for AP and AR authorisation slips.
• Users can manually set the number within the allowed range, ensuring continuity for mid-year adopters.
• The number resets to 1 at the start of every Financial Year.

Integrated Across Reports & Files:

• Used in the Print Reference field on the Central Authorisation Print Details popup.
• Applied to PDFs for Payment Authorisation Control Listing (PACL) and Receipt Authorisation Control Listing (RACL).
• Embedded in filenames as the last three digits, e.g., 25_4030.087 for a reference number of 87.

Sequential Numbering Logic:

• Shared between AP & AR processes to maintain consistent numbering across finance modules.
• Prevents incrementing if an authorisation slip process is reverted due to print failure.
• A caution validation message warns users when modifying the sequence to prevent unintended changes.

Automated Initialisation & Yearly Reset:

• Existing financial years will have an initial value of 1.
• New financial years will automatically start at 1 when created.

This update ensures better control and tracking of Centrally Paid AP/AR transactions, maintaining structured numbering while allowing flexibility when required.
