Invoice numbers Quickbooks Desktop and reverting back to starting number if changed

Thank you for reaching out regarding invoice numbering in QuickBooks Desktop, Katie1122. I understand you're looking for a way to change an invoice number to a higher value and then have it automatically revert to the original numbering sequence for the next invoice. I appreciate the opportunity to provide clarity on this matter.

QBDT offers flexibility in managing invoice numbers, allowing you to adapt the system to your needs. As a workaround for your desired numbering sequence, you can manually change an invoice number to a higher value as needed. For subsequent invoices, you would adjust the number back to your original sequence as well.

While QBDT currently doesn't have a built-in feature to automatically revert to the original numbering sequence after a manual change, this manual method provides a workable solution. Please note you'll need to adjust the number each time you create an invoice with a specific number.
