Allow or Disallow Duplicate Invoices

There is a parameter that either allows duplicate invoice numbers (with a WARNING) to be entered in AP Voucher Entry and Editing (Task 1) or to disallow duplicate invoice numbers.  To set the parameter, go to:

·        Accounts Payable (Module 3)

o       System Management Functions  (Task 32)

§         Modify Parameter Files (Subtask 22)

·        A/P General (Option 1)

Look for parameter:

DUP'DOC'ACTION=     Options are: STOP or WARN

Changing the setting from "STOP" to "WARN" will allow duplicate vendor invoice numbers entered, with a warning, but the system will allow the operator to continue, rather than stopping the operator and not allowing the invoice number to be used or entered.
