Hi Sameer,

Hi Sameer,

Can you add a bit more detail as to what is not solved?

You can fully customise the numbering. Please be aware that unless edited, the numbering will continue from where you set it.

Have a look at this help guide on the subject: https://www.clearbooks.co.uk/support/guides/invoicing/sales-invoice-prefixes-and-numbering/

can i do 100% customize ?

Hi Sam,

To do this, you should go to: Settings> Invoice Themes> Preferences.

In the 'Sales invoice prefix' field, you can change the 'INV' to whatever you prefer. In the 'First invoice number' field, you can start the invoice numbering from wherever you like.
