January 9, 2021 at 5:44 am #1300fearless359KeymasterIt works if your set up is correct. You need to have an Inv Prefs record set up and enabled with a description set to the invoice type (aka Quote) that you want to set up. I’ve attached images to show set up and help info.
The inv_number_starting_point shows the setup instructions in the How To… section on the left.
The inv_pregs (should be inv_prefs) the invoice preference set up I have on my test system.
The inv_pref_quote_edit shows the edit screen for the Quote type preference I have set up on my test system.
The inv_pref_numbering_group shows the help information on the Invoice numbering group field of the Inv Prefs record.
The inv_edit shows the edit screen for an invoice of type Quote on my test system. Note the drop down and how it shows the enabled Inv Prefs to select from.By far the most complex part of the set up is if you want quotes (or other invoice types) numbered in a different sequence than the standard Invoice types. The set up for this is manual and uses the si_index table in the database.

February 9, 2021 at 9:01 pm #1335ramanc51ParticipantOk sir, i set accordingly, but not able view quote/invoice separately, it maintain numbering separately only.
pls share how to list/view all invoices only or all quotes only using filters or using any other setting.
February 10, 2021 at 10:20 am #1336RRowleyParticipantAre you running master_2020 version? If so, my last update was to add code to set up the index file and numbering from the INV PREF maintenance screens. I will be updating the documentation in the knowledge base to reflect these changes soon.
If you are on master_2020, download the lasted version and see if it helps.
February 10, 2021 at 7:42 pm #1338ramanc51ParticipantSir while setting up simpleinvoices-master_2020 got following error, how to resolve it?, search result not found on this forum to similar issue.

Unable to output line[; Simple Invoices configuration file]Conversion Failed
February 11, 2021 at 10:16 am #1341RRowleyParticipantPlease make a copy of your custom.config.php file with any personal info (passwords, etc) changed to innocuous values. Then zip this file and attach it to this thread. I’m not sure why you got the error you did but want to test it myself.
February 11, 2021 at 7:57 pm #1342ramanc51ParticipantSir file attached, this i used on simpleinvocie-2019.2, now this also not working showing following error
SimpleInvoices Config::update_config() error
Unable to open config/custom.config.php

February 18, 2021 at 12:31 pm #1354RRowleyParticipantThe file you included was named incorrectly. It should be
custom.config.php
rather thanconfig.custom.php
.Once I corrected this, it converted correctly. I’ve attached the converted ini file in case you just want to use it.

April 16, 2021 at 11:24 pm #1501ramanc51ParticipantSir it was directory writing permission error, now it is resolved by your suggestion on another thread of this same forum, thank you so much to your support.
my suggestion is if possible keep invoice or quote numbers with its label like quote-1 or invoice-5, it will very easy to find out whether a bill is invoice or quote ect.. instead of keeping number sequence only.
