Custom Invoice Numbering

22 July 2011

There's nothing like sending out that first invoice. Of course, sometimes it's advantageous to make that first invoice look like number 273 on the list. A number like that says - 'Yeah, I've sent out a bunch of invoices already. I'm kind of a big deal around here...'

So, now you can customise your invoice numbering, just for this very purpose. You just choose the base number for your next invoice and all subsequent invoices will have an equal or greater value.

It's easy to amaze your new shoppers with the size of your invoice number, here's how:

  1. Log in to your store
  2. Click on Shop Settings (under 'Manage Shop' drop-down menu)
  3. Click on the edit button next to 'Financial Details'
  4. Click 'Next' at the bottom of the 'GST Registration' page
  5. Add your new starting invoice number and hit 'Finish'

Job done.
