RE: invoice numbers

[Konrad Underkofler <kdunderk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greg,

Depends on the apps you have installed and what you use
invoice number for. You may be able to do something with
the invoice sequence field which would add another 7
digits (ie when about to roll set the prior set to
invoice sequence to some arbitrary number...). I am
pretty sure that AR would not care.

Don't know what the impact is I would just play in test
to start with.

Subject: invoice numbers


We are at XAR4 where the invoice number is a 6 digit number.   Does this
increase in size at higher releases?    I ask because we create about 8000
invoices a month and will reach 999999 in about 12 months.     When it rolls
over it will start colliding with history.

Any suggestions other than archiving history.   <The archiving process is
way too slow to be useful>
