🚨 Do you need to learn how to set up a GL Audit Numbering Sequence in NetSuite 🚨

This tutorial will guide you through the steps to set up a GL (General Ledger) audit numbering sequence in NetSuite.

Step-by-Step Guide 📋

  1. Navigate to GL Audit Numbering 🔍
    • From the Period Close Checklist, click on the GL Audit Numbering icon, or
    • Go to Transactions > Management > GL Audit Numbering Sequences > New
  2. Enter Primary Information 📝
    • Provide a name for your numbering sequence (e.g., “My Numbering Sequence”).
    • Select the open period for the sequence.
    • If you use NetSuite OneWorld, select the subsidiaries whose transactions you want to include (use Ctrl on Windows or Command on Mac to select multiple subsidiaries).
  3. Choose Numbering Type 🔢
    • You have two options:
      • Repeatable: Numbering can be rerun on GL impact transactions as often as needed.
      • Permanent: Once a number is assigned, it cannot be changed. If GL impact locking is enabled, any changes to the transaction will create a copy and reverse the original transaction.
  4. Configure Numbering Details ⚙️
    • Set a prefix and/or suffix for the numbering sequence.
    • Specify the minimum number of digits or the starting number for the sequence
    • Choose whether to order transactions by date or entry date.
  5. Set Recurring Options 🔄
    • For permanent sequences, choose a recurring unit type (e.g., hourly).
    • Set the frequency (1-999), with best practice being 1 day or 24 hours.
    • Set the first run and the next run details.
  6. Save and Validate 💾
    • Once you’re happy with the configuration, click Save.
    • Validate the numbering sequence to check if everything is set up correctly.
    • If validation passes, click Run when you’re ready.
  7. Multi-Book Accounting 📚
    • For multi-book accounting, select the appropriate sequences and accounting books for processing.
