Issue with Invoice Number

Rules 399 views 1 replies

Dear Experts,

We have a situation with the invoice numbering.

1. Our invoice numbering has been disrupted due to adding Opening invoices and our software generated Invoice numbers in current Invoice series therefore disrupting the invoice numbering

2. Some invoice numbers are more than 16 digit (eg.ACC-SINV-2020-00001)

3. To rectify No#2, we changed the invoice numbering (to ACC-2020-00002), we reset the series to start from where it last stopped

4. We have generated some eway bills with these invoice numbers

We realised that we might face the following problems

1. Invoice cannot be more than 16 digits, which is the case with some of our invoice numbers

2. Series is disrupted because of opening invoices

eg  ACC-SINV-2020-00001 to ACC-SINV-2020-00010 then the number continues from ACC-SINV-2020-00015 to ACC-SINV-2020-00020

We thought of the following solution, would like to know if this would solve the problem

We can regenerate invoice number serially based on date and send revised Invoices to customers, however,

  •  What do we do for invoices where Eway bill has been generated with old invoice number

Kindly guide us what can be done in this matter.
