I've got some information about the invoice numbers sequence in QuickBooks Online (QBO), Jalec.

 

Our invoicing system generates invoice numbers in a specific order. It's important to note that there's no way to have different sequence numbers for invoices from different sources. This is because the system will automatically generate invoice numbers based on its sequence, regardless of the source.

 

If you need to have a different sequence for your invoices, you can manually edit the invoice number as a workaround. But before doing so, ensure to turn on the custom transaction number. Here are the steps to follow:

 

1. Click on the Gear icon.

2. Select Account and Settings.

3. Choose the Sales menu.

4. Click the Custom transaction numbers button in the Sales form content.

 

To edit the invoice number:

 

  1. Go to the Sales menu, then choose Invoices.
  2. The invoice window appears with the list of invoices created so far.
  3. Find the invoices in question.
  4. Click on Edit in the Action column.
  5. Update the invoice number.

 

You can also  create templates for recurring transactions within the program.
