How do I stop creating duplicate quote numbers? When I create a new quote it uses the previous quote number already assigned to a client.
Thank you

Hi carolinesnow,
QuickBooks Online allows you to set your own numbering preference on your sales forms by enabling Custom transaction numbers. Once you use the same invoice or quote number, you will receive an error message. Let's try to do some troubleshooting to avoid duplication of your quote numbers by turning off and on Custom transaction numbers. Here's how:
Once done, try to create a quote and you can manually enter the quote number. The next quote you'll be creating will automatically assign the quote number in sequence.
Also, I have added an article on how to find duplicate invoice, quote, or sales receipt numbers.
Keep us posted if you have further questions. Have a nice day!
