Prefix, padding, and starting number per document type. Sequential, gap-free, and immutable for audit.

  • Prefix per document type

What you get

Invoice and bill numbers exactly how you want them — sequential, audit-ready.

Prefixes that fit

INV-, BILL-, JE- — set them per document type to match your bookkeeping practice.

Padding

Pad numbers to a fixed width (INV-00001 vs INV-1) — keeps lists tidy and audits clean.

Pick the starting number

Migrating from another tool? Start at the next number in your sequence.

Immutable

Once issued, numbers don't change. Voided documents are flagged, not renumbered.

Frequently asked

Can I change the format mid-year?

Yes, but with care. New documents use the new format; historical ones keep their original numbers.

What about voided invoices?

Voided documents keep their number and are flagged as voided. The next number issues normally.

Are numbering schemes per company?

Yes. Each company in your account has its own schemes — perfect for multi-entity setups.
