Hi you all, I am investing in your Timing Billing Seminar and decided to stop using a third party for do my invoices. I wounder if I can start my autonumer for Order ID to the current Order that I have now for example can I start my order number from 1 to 1101? How?

Here's a lesson that I think will help. AutoNumbers Are NOT For You

	Alex Lewis @Reply 2 months ago
Agree with Sandra. AutoNumbers are only meant for Access when making relationships. If you need sequential, automatically incrementing numbers that you can control, check out this other video as well. Sequential Numbers: https://599cd.com/Counter

I see Sandra and Alex have shared some excellent guidance and resources about the use of AutoNumbers and alternatives for custom sequential numbering in your invoices. If you need any further clarification on setting up your order sequence or run into specific issues while following these lessons, please let me know - I'm here to help ensure you get your invoicing working exactly as you need.
