Sales Invoice Line Volumes

You can process sales invoices with up to 9,980 lines using Lightning Experience.

Warning:
The maximum supported number of sales invoice lines depends on the other Accounting features enabled in your org and on their complexity. For example:
  • Intercompany Accounts or Intercompany Accounts Receivable (A/R).
  • A local chart of accounts structure.
  • Avalara AvaTax external tax calculation.
  • The Primary (Live) Update balance type. To achieve higher document line volumes, use the Primary (On Demand) Update Balance type. For more information, see About Balance Update.
  • Any custom processes or integrations related to the sales invoices in the org.
  • Note that Salesforce limits the number of lines processed in a single operation to 10,000.

Additionally, you can use Datastream to bulk-load sales invoices with up to 9,980 lines from a spreadsheet. For more information about Datastream, see Datastream Overview.

This table shows the achievable number of sales invoice lines, depending on their type and the additional features enabled.

Note:
The achievable number of lines may vary depending on your org's configuration and the factors mentioned above.

Notes:
  • Synchronous posting occurs when you post an "In Progress" sales invoice immediately using the Post button. For more information about synchronous posting, see the SIN lines threshold field descriptions in Accounting Settings.
  • Asynchronous posting occurs when you use the Background Posting Scheduler to post sales invoices with the following statuses:
    • Ready to Post
    • Ready to Post and Match

    • For more information about the Background Posting Scheduler, see About the Background Posting Scheduler.
