Extract invoice number from ISR reference

The reference number contains the invoice number. More information: SCOR Reference and QR Reference.

To extract the customer's invoice number from the reference number, proceed as follows:

• Check the box Extract customer invoice number from reference number
• If the reference number was created by the Banana Accounting Plus program:
  • Check the box Use Banana format.
  • The fields 'Start Position,' 'Number of Characters,' and 'Function' are not to be used.
  • If using balance sheet accounts as customer accounts, leave the Cost Center for Customer Accounts parameter empty.
    Otherwise, if cost centers are used as customer accounts, indicate the cost center used (Cc1, Cc2, Cc3).
  • Check the box Keep initial zeros if the customer account starts with one or more zeros.

• If the reference number was created with other invoicing systems:
  • The 'Use Banana format' checkbox should not be checked.
  • In the Start Position field, indicate the position of the first character where the invoice number starts within the reference number.
  • In the Number of Characters field, indicate how many characters the invoice number is composed of.
  • Alternatively, instead of indicating position and number of characters, you can specify a JavaScript function in the 'Function' field that extracts the invoice number. For example: (function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);}). Note: the string must contain the initial and final round brackets.
     

 The extracted invoice number is saved in the 'Invoice' (DocInvoice) column of the Transactions table.

The reference number contains the invoice number. More information: SCOR Reference and QR Reference.

To extract the customer account from the reference number, proceed as follows:

• Check the box Extract customer account from reference.
• If the reference number was created by Banana Accounting Plus program:
  • Check the box Use Banana format.
  • The fields 'Start Position,' 'Number of Characters,' and 'Function' are not to be used.
  • If using balance sheet accounts as customer accounts, leave the Cost center for customer accounts parameter empty. 
    Otherwise, if cost centers are used as customer accounts, indicate the cost center used (Cc1, Cc2, Cc3).
  • Check the box Keep Initial Zeros if the customer account starts with one or more zeros.
    
    
     
• If the reference number was created with other invoicing systems:
  • The 'Use Banana format' checkbox should not be checked.
  • In the Start Position, indicate the position of the first character where the customer account starts within the reference number.
  • In the Number of Characters field, indicate how many characters the customer account is composed of.

For example: (function(text) {return text.substr(10,5);}). Note: the string must contain the initial and final round brackets.
  • Check the box Keep initial Zeros if the customer account starts with one or more zeros.
    
    
     

The extracted customer account is saved in the Account/Category or cost center (Cc1/Cc2/Cc3) column of the Transactions table.

For example, if by mistake, balance sheet accounts are used as customer accounts and Cc1 is indicated in the 'Cost Center for Customer Accounts' field, the respective balance sheet account will be treated as a cost center and reported in the Cc1 column of the 'Transactions' table with a negative sign in front, for example: -110001. In this case, it is sufficient to set the parameters correctly and repeat the operation.
