Invoice numbers no longer consecutive

[Plumberwife]

First day back in New Year and the two invoices I just raised are completely random and out of order (last invoice before Xmas was 00035297)  the two I have done so far are 00033729 and 00033838.  Can someone from MYOB let me know what's happened?  I am using 2019.4

Hi 

I see that the numbers are prior to your "last" number.  What I have found is that if I amend a prior invoice and made it an order (ie put the bill qty as zero and have a backorder qty instead), the next time I create a new invoice it starts from that adjusted invoice's number, which is very annoying.  Once I realise this, I overide the auto number on the new invoice with the correct number and then it follows sequence again.

Kind regards

Thanks Bruce.  I just over-rode the invoice number and it seems to be working fine.  Fingers crossed - thanks for the reply.  Much appreciated.
