Enter the default product number into "Default artikelnummer" -field.
The value entered here must also exist as "Artikelnummer" in Visma Administration's products register (Register > Artiklar och tjänster). When invoice is transferred from Severa to Visma Administration, each invoice row is matched to a product in Visma Administration. If invoice row doesn't get the product number based on Severa's settings, the default is used.
Select if you like to transfer case number to invoices by check the "Överför projektnummer i fakturor (Kräver Visma Administration 1000/2000).

Select which system that should number your invoices:
If Severa is selected, only invoices with numbers can be transferred.
If Visma Administration is selected, invoice number is always updated from Visma Administration to the Severa invoice. If this option is selected you should define a completely different invoice number series in Severa (Settings > Invoicing > Invoicing defaults > Invoice numbering).
When this setting is used, you need to be extra careful when transferring invoices from Severa to Visma Administration. Example: If you accidentally transfer same invoice twice to Visma Administration:
In Severa you have only one invoice, which has invoice number from the invoice which is transferred most recently
In Visma Administration you have two invoices, invoice which has been transferred first and second invoice which has been transferred most recently
If you use special languages, measurement units or payment terms in Visma Administration/Severa, it is possible to match them in the mapping tables. These settings are optional normally the tables can be left empty.
