Customizing these allows businesses to follow specific internal naming standards for their documents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Accessing Sequence Settings:<\/strong> To modify these numbers, the narrator navigates to <strong>Settings &gt; Technical &gt; Sequences &amp; Identifiers &gt; Sequences<\/strong>. This area serves as the control center for all document numbering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Defining the Prefix and Suffix:<\/strong> The video demonstrates how to set a custom <strong>Prefix<\/strong> (e.g., &#8220;SO&#8221; for Sales Orders) and a <strong>Suffix<\/strong>. This ensures that every new document generated follows the exact alphanumeric format your business requires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adjusting Sequence Size:<\/strong> The narrator shows how to configure the <strong>Sequence Size<\/strong>, which determines the number of digits used (e.g., 0001 vs 00001). This helps in planning for long-term scalability as your order volume grows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step and Next Number:<\/strong> A key feature shown is the ability to set the <strong>Step<\/strong> (the increment value) and the <strong>Next Number<\/strong>. This is particularly useful if you are migrating from another system and want to continue your numbering where you left off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Implementation in Sales:<\/strong> The demonstration shows the immediate effect of these changes. When a new Sales Order is created, the system automatically assigns the next number in the newly defined sequence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Business Organization:<\/strong> By mastering sequence numbers, businesses can ensure that their records are easy to search, audit, and track across different departments like Sales, Accounting, and Inventory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video provides an essential guide to managing Sequence Numbers in Odoo 18, demonstrating how to customize the naming conventions [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[355],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bharath-india"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25450","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25450"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25450\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
