Thanks, @armoredart. Ok. In another thread, I’ve posted a work-around that DOES work. But for the life of me I can’t find it, probably because I post a lot here! Ha. Anyway, here’s what I did.
Go to your invoices and send a test invoice to yourself. Before sending it, change the pre-populated invoice number to whatever you want. Let’s say you want this year’s invoices to be 2024xxxxx, then you would put in your test invoice 202400000. Send that invoice to yourself.
Then, create another invoice. You should see that the next number is now 202400001, the next will be 202400002, etc. I think this will get you what you want.
One word of warning — don’t get creative! This work-around will break if you try to make your invoice number alphanumeric. So, you can not do INV-00001, or even 2024-00001. Only digits are allowed, currently, so stick with that.
I hope that helps.
