HI, Wasn't able to find this info on forum. Basically I started new job as a bookkeeper. My employer raises invoices in Word and then put them on Sage. I think it's a waste of time and want to raise invoices directly from Sage, however:
Invoice numbers are assigned to each client individually ie; client A has invoice 13-01-108 client B 13-01-025. Next month they will get 13-02-108 and 13-02-025. Can I carry on with this on Sage? It seems software does not allow to customise this.
If not what implications are of changing completely numbering, so it's possible to use Sage for invoicing. Ie I would start invoicing from 1..., don't want to have HMRC on my back:)
You can change the numbers in Sage but you will not be able to have the dashes, so the invoice numbers become 1302108 and 1302026 etc. If you wish to recreate a Sage invoice from the word document , just type the invoice number in the invoice number box when creating the Product or Service invoice
But if you employer is raising them in Word, why are you creating them again in Sage, why don't you enter them as batch invoices, in the Customer module.
Hi Mark, that's what I meant, sorry. I enter them as batch invoices, but it is a bit complicated as we raised invoices in different currecies and I need to split customers on Euro accounts, dollars and so on. Still think it's not very efficient way of doing it. I will give it a go and try to raise invoices like you advised.
