    Simple answer that we tell our end-customer users: If you made a mistake booking an invoice, had to credit it out, and now need to re-enter the invoice, just add "-1" or "A" (or another letter) to the end of the invoice number.

    If Vendor Invoice number is 20202, make it 20202-1 or 20202A.

    It'll ensure that the document is easy to find later, and on your remittance advice you send the vendor with your payment, it will ensure that they can also easily understand which invoice(s) you're paying.

    The alternative is to customize NAV, which I think is unnecessary for this situation.

    I hope this helps.

    As a simple solution, you can also put "." in the end of the invoice number. However it is strange that the same vendor is providing you two identical invoice numbers for the same date. Better process is to negotiate with supplier so he issues a correct one.
