following values:
If the project has been created from a template, this setting is initially populated with the value specified in the AIA Level box on the Summary tab (AIA section) of the Project Templates (PM208000) form. |
Last Application Nbr. | The application number that has been assigned to the last pro
forma invoice with progress billing lines prepared for the current
project. This number is incremented each time a new pro forma
invoice is created but is not changed when a new revision of a pro
forma invoice is created. By default, the application number is a
four-digit value that the system assigns sequentially: The first
pro forma invoice is assigned 0001, the second one is
assigned 0002, and so on. You can change the format of
the application number by adding letters, symbols, and extra
digits to fit the internal application number format of the
company. Note: An application number is unique within the
project but is not unique across projects. That is, each pro
forma invoice related to the project has a unique
application number, but pro forma invoices related to
different projects may have the same application
numbers. If the project has been created from a template, this setting is initially populated based on the value in the Application Nbr. Format box on the Summary tab (AIA section) of the Project Templates form. If the format is not specified in the project template, the four-digit format is used by default. |
