Service Sales Order Prefix
When you release a contract to invoicing, the system creates a sales order you can print and post using the Sales Orders/Invoices module. It is usually best to set up a prefix and a different number range for contract sales orders. This helps distinguish them from standard sales orders.
Do this by specifying values for Service SO Prefix and Next Service Sales Order in Contract Control (11.5.24).
Setting up a Service SO Number in Contract Control
In this example, the Service SO prefix is S, and the next service sales order number is 0002145.
