Number sequences generate readable, unique identifiers for master data records and transaction records that need them. A master data or transaction record that needs an identifier is called a reference. Before you can create new records for a reference, you need to set up a number sequence and associate it with the reference. This article explains how to set up all required number sequences at the same time by using a wizard. The demo data company used to create this procedure is USMF.

- On this page, you can modify the identification code, the lowest value, and the highest value. You can also specify whether the number sequence must be continuous.
