Auto purchase numbers out of sequence
Hi , I have an issue with our purchase order numbers auto sequencing. We seem to have gone backwards a few years, how can i reset to the current number sequence?

Hi Willmo1,
Thank you for your post.
Regarding your concern with purchase numbers auto-sequencing, each time an invoice is created, it tries to use the next number in the internal sequence by default. This is designed to happen automatically without the need for user intervention. Occasionally, the invoice autonumbering sequence can get pulled out of sequence or will try to base the number sequence on an old transaction, especially if transactions are deleted or recorded out of order. In this case, in order to reset the auto-number sequencing, you would need to enter a few invoices with the new sequence number. You may go back to the invoices and manually change the number or create a new invoice and manually enter the number you prefer to use so that the software can pick it up.
Please let me know if you require any further assistance with this. I'm happy to assist.
Cheers,
Princess
