Configure Transaction Numbering

How to Configure Transaction Numbering in Muhasib ERP
Overview
This guide will help you configure an approved prefix, suffix, and starting number for a transaction family without creating duplicate identifiers.
Relevant new records use the effective settings. Global and local numbering can conflict if precedence/scope is misunderstood.
Who can do this
You need access to Global Configurations or Instance Settings, plus finance/system-owner authorization.
Before you start
Back up the database. Inventory existing highest numbers, offline/pending transactions, all terminals, imports, integrations, and conversion workflows. Stop new entry during the change.
Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.
Where to find it
Back Office → Settings → Application/Global Settings → Transaction Settings; or Instance Settings → Transaction Settings when explicitly set up.

Step 4: Choose a start value above all existing and pending identifiers
Choose a start value above all existing and pending identifiers in the effective scope.
Step 5: Enter approved prefix/suffix values
Step 6: Save and reopen the affected entry form
Step 7: Create one disposable record on each relevant terminal, then test
Create one disposable record on each relevant terminal, then test conversion/import/synchronization.
Check your work
Query the corresponding inquiry/report and confirm uniqueness, ordering, company/terminal scope, and correct converted/source references.
Take a moment to check your work before closing the window. This small check can save time later.
If something goes wrong
Stop immediately on a duplicate or reset sequence.
Do not renumber historical records manually.
