How can I change the last Accounts Receivable and Billing invoice number so that the next invoice number prefills correctly?

My Billing or Accounts Receivable invoice number is wrong. How can I change which number it will prefill with?

Resolution

In Accounts Receivable, from the Tools menu, select Options.

Check the Audit setup activity box and click OK.

From the File menu, select Company Settings, AR Settings

Click Entry Settings and enter the correct invoice number in the Last invoice number box.

Note: The next invoice number will increment one from this number.

Click OK twice.

From the Tools menu, select Options.

Clear the Audit setup activity check box and click OK.

This is from the KB article 23416

Spotter,

The last invoice number for AR and Billing is stored and can be changed in File>Company Settings>AR Settings>Entry Settings. This is also covered in knowledgebase article ID 23416.

This field automatically prefills with 1000 and is incremented by 1 when invoices are final printed in Billing, an invoice number is entered in Accounts Receivable - Enter Invoices, invoices are imported into Accounts Receivable, or when a Quick Bill invoice is printed.
