How do I create my own numbering format for invoices, Estimates and statements?

Billings Pro's numbering for estimates invoices and statements all start at 1 and count up from there by default. You may be required to change this format by law, or you may simply prefer a different format. With Billings Pro's number formatting preferences, this can be done easily.

When making your own number format, your Billings Pro estimate's, invoice's, or statement's number is divided into two sections, Numbering and Prefix.

Numbering

• The actual number of your invoice statement
• Can be any number
• Increments by 1
• Can be changed to previously used numbers if you are recreating previous estimate invoices and statements
• By adding additional 0's in front of the invoice number you can add number padding so that your invoices look like 02, 002, and so on.

Prefix

• Text, numbers or a combination of both that will precede the actual estimate, invoice or statement number
• Common examples of this would be the date the format has been made, a client's name or even your company's name
• By using tokens in the table below you can automate the output of your prefix

*_{If your project does not have a project code then the invoice will have %projcode%added as the prefix instead.}
