Invoice Numbers - Estimated to Wrap in 2018
We started in 2005 with an invoice number of 1000001, and credit note number of 3000001. On June 5, 2009 invoice numbers passed 3000000 and duplicated the credit note numbers. ASW was fine, as it accesses files by invoice number / type (1-invoice, 2-credit note) / year. The extensions were not. We quickly changed them to use the same key structure - after changing the next invoice number (in the number series table) to 5000001.
When the invoice number reaches 8999999 it will go back to 1000001. I don't think anything will happen - but keep an eye on it just in case.
In order to monitor the process, get the current invoice number (series INV) from the Document Number Series Table, and add it to this document.
