Document Numbers Available for Auto-Numbering
If you were using NetSuite before 2015.2, your settings from the old Transaction subtab were copied to the new Document Numbers subtab. You can update settings as needed on the Document Numbers subtab, or on the Transaction Numbers subtab, if it's visible. To show the Transaction Numbers subtab, go to Setup > Company > General Preferences, check Show Transaction Numbering Setup, and save.
For new customers, document type numbers aren't set up, except for the starting number, which is 1.
Some document types on the Document Numbers subtab of the Set Up Auto-Generated Numbers page may not be available if the related features aren't enabled in your account.
Auto-generated document numbers are external numbers such as a vendor bill number, or account based, such as a check number. You can also use type-based document numbers, appear as custom columns in searches and lists.
For more information, see Auto-Generated Document Numbers.
For external numbering sequences such as vendor bill, each vendor has a unique document number, so the same document number can be assigned to more than one vendor. NetSuite won't let a vendor have duplicated document numbers on the same transaction type. This applies to all four external transaction types whether they were entered in the UI or through a CSV import: Bill (Vendor Bill), Bill Credit (Vendor Credit), Credit Card Charge (Customer Credit Card), and Credit Card Refund (CCard Refund).
Updating document numbers permanently changes all document numbers on historical transactions.
You can place letters before or after the numbers of the following document types:
