Once again we have a French auditor who is asking that this functionality be reintegrated into Business Central.
I think this issue must necessarily be known to the customers of other Microsoft partners, knowing that it is related to French accounting regulations.
I'm surprised that we're the only ones to report this anomaly.
If not, it is recommended that the other partners vote for this suggestion
Particularly important for invoices from utility companies whose invoice numbers are often very long. 50 characters seems reasonable.
The current field ultimately extends from the Num (number sequence) EDT which makes no sense at all since the supplier's invoice number would never be auto generated by the system. This also means that the only way we can customise the solution to resolve this is to increase the size of the Num EDT such that all number sequence fields become the same size as needed for supplier invoice numbers.
