How to change the invoice number
In the app
The number on the invoice view and customer PDF usually comes from:
- Your internal order number, and/or
- The QuickBooks estimate or invoice number after you sync
To change what the customer sees before approval, update the order title or reference fields on the order, then refresh the invoice view.
After QuickBooks sync
Once an estimate or invoice exists in QuickBooks, numbering follows your QuickBooks sales form settings (custom transaction numbers, prefix, and so on). Edit the document in QuickBooks if you need a different official number; Custom Designer will pick up updates on the next sync when that’s supported.
Tip
Agree on a numbering convention with your bookkeeper so the shop doesn’t reuse numbers across clients.
