Good to have you in the Community space, @tejinder1.

 

QuickBooks Online remembers the invoice number and continues the sequence. Thus, creating a new one will automatically populate to the next number order.

 

What we can do is to edit the number of your invoice to the one you've deleted. I'll show you how. 

 

  1. Go to the + New menu in your QuickBooks Online (QBO).
  2. Select Invoice.
  3. Go to the Invoice no. field and change the invoice number from there. 
  4. Enter the needed details of the invoice and click Save and close or Save and new once done.

In case you want to learn how to modify your invoices, you can refer to the steps outlined in this article: Customise invoices, estimates, and cash memos in QuickBooks Online.
