Credit Memos can be configured to follow a custom numbering sequence.
Back End Configuration
Aria Customer Support must create an entry in a client sequence table. In that table, they will specify:
- a custom string that can be prepended to the beginning, or appended to the end, of the credit memo number; and
- the number that will start the sequence (e.g. rather than starting from the number "1," the sequence could begin with "1000").
UI Configuration
There are three parameters you can configure within the Aria UI.
