NRM Sequences
Programs must be specifically enabled to use NRM. Currently, NRM sequences are used in general ledger (GL) daybooks, fixed assets, logistics accounting, shipping, the PRO/PLUS WIP Lot Trace module, and Kanban.
Fixed Assets
An optional NRM sequence number can be specified in Fixed Asset Control (32.24) for automatically generating fixed asset ID numbers.
See User Guide: Fixed Assets.
General Ledger Daybooks
GL daybooks let you group and report GL transactions. Unposted transactions include the daybook code and daybook entry number. NRM generates entry numbers based on the ID of the daybook.
See User Guide: Financials.
Logistics Accounting
If you are using the optional Logistics Accounting module, two NRM sequences must be defined in Logistics Accounting Control (2.15.24) for distribution order shipments and sales order shipments.
See User Guide: Master Data.
Shipping
Many countries legally require businesses to maintain strict control when assigning numbers to shipping documents. This is also true when multiple number ranges are assigned to the same type of shipping document. To meet this need, NRM is required for all shipper functionality.
See User Guide: Distribution.
WIP Lot Trace
An optional NRM sequence number can be specified in WIP Lot Trace Control (3.22.13.24) for generating WIP lot and serial numbers in the various functions that trace them.
See User Guide: PRO/PLUS.
Kanban
If you use dispatch lists to communicate kanban card authorizations to your suppliers, you must specify an NRM sequence in Kanban Control (17.22.24). The system uses the sequence to generate an ID number during dispatch list processing.
See User Guide: Kanban.
