OLD Invoice Numbers or gaps being used out of sequence if user manually changes a date.

Hi All,

 

I know this has been raised many times before. 

 

OLD Invoice Numbers or Gaps in invoice numbers being used out of sequence accross all users, if one user manually changes the inv number or somehow the invoice number is modified and saved.

 

This effects all users / pc at the same time if one users manually has changes an invoice number.

 

Can it not be programmed that each users computer looks for the latest invoice processed in the system and the INV NUMBER data and use that data to continue the sequence for all  "New Sales" or "Enter Sales".

 

Or could some master setting be programmed into AR preferences / setting, where the owner stipulates a Invoice number format or MASTER sequence etc (000269269 = 9 digits) that they want MYOB to use. Then if an invoice is processed using an invoice number that doesnt match this MASTER sequence / number of digits specified, it is flagged and not allowed to be recorded?

    Hi nduro 

     

    Thanks for your feedback. I have passed this on to the team. In the meantime the invoice numbering will continue to work like this. The Invoice No. field shows the next available number for your invoices, quotes and orders. If you click the Invoice No. field, Auto # appears to confirm that the number has been automatically selected for you. When you type a different number, subsequent invoice numbers will then increment from the new number. This is not something that can be changed at the moment.

Looking for something else?
