Invoice number versus posted invoice number

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Ola Darwish 915

Hi

I m seeing that invoice numbers are different once they are posted.

I went to No.Series and I made invoice number and posted sales invoice number match.  it worked fine for a couple of invoices and started to be different again

I did a couple of tests and I realized that if I click new to create a new invoice and delete it.  The delete action doesn't update the last used number field. and that creates a difference in numbering between the invoice before and after posting

Is this how the system work?  is there a way to make sure that invoice and posted invoice numbers are all matched up?

Thanks

Ola

    Hello Ola,

    The number series are different between saved invoices and posted invoices. It also does use an invoice number if you click New and the delete it. This is for audit trail purposes and cannot be changed. There is not a way to keep the numbers the same right now but there is a suggestion for this and we will add you to this. Thank you for your feedback.

    Hi Jodi,

    Thank you for your reply

    Just wondering how will can I Reconcile the invoice number that I entered during entered the invoice and shows up on the print out versus the posted invoice number.

    is it the Pre-assigned number? If yes, I tried to add the pre-assigned number to the list of posted invoices but I couldn't find it as a column. I have to drill down on each one to see it

    is there another easier way to lookup the invoices ?

    Thanks

    Ola,

    Yes, it is the Pre-assigned No., you are correct. If it is not in the columns then there isn't a way to add it. But I will add it to our suggestions so there is an easier way to look it up.
