Automatic adjustment of sales invoices numbering after invoice deletion

ZG
13/06/2022
Question

Dear Dexxter community,

I have deleted a sales invoice that I created by mistake.

However, this is the second invoice from the year, and dozens of other invoices have been created since then.

Is there a way to automatically correct the numbering, to “close the gap”? Or do I have to adjust all next invoices in a manual manner?

Thanks,

ZG

Um... But not having a number isn't such a big deal, as I always used to tell my accountant :) There just has to be a reason for it, and he used to create a fictitious sales invoice purely for the sake of having a reason.But I think that's rather difficult to explain :p In your case, you would create sales invoice number 2, but just make it fictitious. For example, to a private person, but don't send it, of course, just create it with number 2. So with €0, and then you can state on that invoice why number 2 is fictitious. So in this case: "the numbering had already been used up, so a fictitious invoice number 2 was created.... "

Just so you know for later :)

Okay, that seems like a good solution to me. Thank you!
