When recurring invoices are automatically generated, they use the sequential numbering from the active invoices.
This is never in the sequence that is needed for invoices that are generated in another application and then imported or manually entered into Xero.
I would like to have the recurring invoices have a templated invoice number instead of a live number. If that number proforma could be user editable, that would be an advantage.
I'm thinking that TMP-{inv no}, or {inv no}-TMP or similar would work, then when the draft is edited to be a live invoice, the invoice number field can be typed over without having to edit EVERY draft invoice number before making them live invoices because doing that is very time consuming.
