custom invoice number

[PixelPaul]

So the "Sequential Invoice Number Format" is great as i need to be able to have the invoices formatted so i can make them different from my other WHMCS systems.

But i just noticed that the invoice number is only used for paid invoices. Not for unpaid invoices?

 

this seems to be a bit of a joke? as what company would change an invoice number once it is paid? like really... why is it like this?

 

Is there any way to make it work a reasonable way to have the invoice number formatted for all invoices, from unpaid to paid like any normal software would?

Im having the same issue..

 

Its not logical to have unpaid invoices diffrent invoice numbers and when they turn into paid diffrent number again..

 

How to fix that?? To have unpaid and paid invoices the same format and number??? (URGENT HELP PLEASE)

 

Thanks allot!

´´Hi,

To keep the same invoice number when paid an unpaid you need to enable both Custom Invoice Numbering and Sequential Paid Invoice Numbering in the EU VAT Addon.

Then set the Custom Invoice Numbering Format and Sequential Invoice Number Format fields exactly the same

Finally set the Next Invoice Number and Next Paid Invoice Number fields exactly the same.´´ quote and credits to that user.
