Numbering Invoice Groups

If you do not set up custom numbering for your invoice groups, they are numbered sequentially, beginning with the number one (1).

An invoice group is not a transaction, therefore it does not appear in transaction searches. However, invoice groups number similar to transactions, and they appear in the Transaction Numbering Audit log.

You can setup prefixes, suffixes, and a minimum number of digits for an invoice group number.

To customize invoice group numbering:

  1. Go to Setup > Company > Auto-Generated Numbers.

  2. Click the Document Numbers subtab.

    Note:

    Because an invoice group is not a transaction, it appears under the Document Numbers subtab instead of the Transactions subtab.

  3. Locate Invoice Group in the Type column.

  4. Enter information in the following column fields:

    • Prefix

    • Suffix

    • Minimum Digits

  5. If you want to restart numbering, check the Update Initial Number box.

  6. Click Save.

To create subsidiary-set numbering for an invoice group number, check the Use Subsidiary box.

For more information about numbering, see Set Auto-Generated Numbers.

Even though an invoice group is not a transaction, you can use the Transaction Numbering Audit Log to view information about an invoice group. For more information, see Transaction Numbering Audit Log.
