Hi - I currently use Jobber to issue invoices - however I am looking to move to a different accounts package and wanted to know how I could start the invoice numbering from a different number in order to create a clean break between accounting systems
I'm not a Jobber expert but I'm 95% certain you can just change the actual number of the invoice and have it start sequentially from there. I do have the most built out package of jobber so I'm not sure if that's something that goes with a certain level but it's definitely possible and very easy to do.
Hi accounts
You can create a clean break in your invoice numbering by manually increasing the number on your next invoice.
For example, if your invoice numbers start at 1 and you would like your new system to start at 100, simply change the next invoice number to 100. After that, Jobber will automatically continue from the highest number used, so the following invoice would be 101 and so on.
Jobber always references the largest invoice number on file when generating the next one.
To avoid inconvenience later, it is usually best to choose the lowest possible starting number that still creates the gap you are looking for. That way, you preserve flexibility while still clearly separating the two accounting systems.
