    Hi VZ23 

     

    Thanks for your post. We have identified that some customers will use alphanumeric reference numbers, which is a problem because the software does not pick up those reference numbers when searching for duplicates.

     

    We do understand that some users use a different sequence for invoices being imported, which has been fed back to the required teams for future updates.

     

    Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi There I have had the same problem after modifying manually an old invoice. I deleted the invoice and reintered it with the original date and the same number omitting the leading 0s.

On that same date a number of other invoices were produced with the correct sequential numbers.

When I enter a new invoice now, it picks up an  invoice number sequential to the modified one which results in a duplicate .

My prefences in the setup are for warning if duplicate invoice numbers and Purchase numbers are entered, but this time nor warning is  issued.

Is there a solution for this problem?

Thanks

Hi Rosine 

 

With the 2 invoices you have entered you mentioned you omitted the leading 0s? 

If the invoice or purchase does not have the standard 8 digits the warn for duplicate will not work.

 

If that is not the case, can you provide examples for me to have a look at? You can reply with a screenshot (redacting sensitive information) or send as a private message.

    Hi Samara, I replaced the leading zeros in the reworked invoices, but that didn't solve the problem.

    I found a solution in "how to delete an invoice", so I made my last correctly numbered invoice as "recurring" and then started a new  invoice which incremented correctly.
