Field help (SIVTYP5)

Specify the invoice type used during the sales invoice generation. This information is mandatory.
The default type originates from the SIVTYP - User invoice type parameter (VEN chapter, INV group). 

This information is compulsory.

The invoice type suggested by default is linked to the SIVTYP - User invoice type parameter. You can modify it if necessary by choosing an invoice type from the list of invoice types that have been defined.
The customer invoice type:

• is used for the Sales and BP Customer invoices;
• identifies a category of invoice (invoice, credit memo etc.) along with a posting structure for the posting of the invoices;
• is associated with a type of journal for which a counter (manual or automatic) is specified.
  Notes:

• If no counter is specified in the journal type and no journal number is manually specified on invoice entry the program will attribute a journal number according to the counter set up in the Counter assignment table.
• When no journal type is associated to the invoice type the journal type specified on the automatic journal is used (as well as the associated counter).

On invoice entry, only an invoice type with a legislation and company group consistent with those of the company linked to the sales site can be entered.
