Running Numbers

Running Numbers control the automatic numbering of your documents and works — for example, invoice numbers, quotation numbers, and work order numbers.

Accessing Running Numbers

Go to Settings → Running Numbers.

Running Numbers Table

Column Description
Sequence Type The document or record type (e.g. Invoice, Quotation, Work)
Prefix Text prepended before the number
Number The current running number
Suffix Text appended after the number

Configuring a Running Number

Running numbers are pre-configured for each sequence type — you cannot add or remove them. To edit:

  1. Click the edit icon on a sequence row
  2. Update the fields:
Field Description
Prefix Text before the number (e.g. INV-, Q-, WORK-)
Running Number The next number that will be assigned
Suffix Text after the number (e.g. -2025)
  1. Click Save

The generated reference will look like: {Prefix}{Number}{Suffix} — for example, INV-0001-2025.

Warning

Lowering the running number below already-issued numbers can cause duplicate reference numbers. Only increase the counter unless you are certain no lower numbers have been used.
