When the new separate sales numbering sequences were introduced, we set it up and changed the settings so order numbers wouldn't be retained when converting to invoices.
However, after a bit of to and fro with support, we were told these settings only come into play when converting a quote to an order or invoice and are not triggered when converting an order to an invoice.
This feels like a bit of an oversight in the implementation of the new number sequences. Otherwise, I don't understand the purpose or intent of the separate sequencing.
We liked the idea of the separate sequences because our invoice numbers have been jumping all over the place because some orders are not converted until several months after creating.
On a rare positive note, we've noticed the bug that meant we weren't being warned about duplicate sales invoice numbers has been fixed, so that's something. Thanks.
