For this, you have to set some preferences and configure the sequence number first, as explained below.

Preferences

Application > General Setup > Application > Preference

In order to configure a business partner sequence number, two preferences must be enabled. These can be found in the Preferences window.

This property allows the automatic generation of sequence numbers for business partners. The default value is N and, in case it is necessary to enable this automatic generation, a new preference must be created, but with the value Y and the option Selected checked.

Allow Jumps in Business Partner Document No

This property allows jumping among the different document numbers. The default value is N, so, it is not allowed to remove business partners or change business partner categories.
