I would like to create 2 sets of invoices. For example, invoices for wholesalers and invoices for retailers. However, I would like each set to have their own inv no.?

Meaning wholesale having a W in front, i.e. W1001 and retail inv number 1001

You can customize transaction numbers each time you create an invoice, @anna54.

 

QuickBooks Online (QBO) auto-generates sequential transaction numbers. However, you can turn on the Custom Transaction Numbers feature to let you add your preferred invoice numbers.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon in the upper right corner.
  2. Select Account and Settings.
  3. Click on the Sales tab located in the left menu.
  4. Scroll down to the Sales form content section and check the box for Custom transaction numbers.
  5. Click Save, then Done to confirm changes.

 

 

When creating invoices, use a "W" prefix for the Wholesale Invoice Template by adding it before the invoice number. For the Retail Invoice Template, you can either leave the number without a prefix or add an "R" based on your preference.

 

 

I've also attached this helpful article to learn how to personalize and add specific info to your sales forms: Customize invoices, estimates, and sales receipts.
