Number Series
Configure automatic document numbering for invoices and credit notes.
Number series control how your documents are numbered. Each series maps a document
category and direction to a prefix and the next number to use, so every
invoice and credit note gets a unique, sequential identifier automatically. Open
it from Company → Company Configuration → Number Series (route
/settings/company-profile?tab=numberseries).
The list
Each row shows the series Code, Name, Category, Direction, Next Number, whether it's the Default for that category, and its Status.
Fatorly comes with a series for each document type — plus two Master Data series that number your customer and vendor codes — for example:
| Code | Name | Example next number |
|---|---|---|
| SI | Sales Tax Invoices | INV-2026-00001 |
| SCI | Sales Commercial Invoices | CI-2026-00001 |
| SCN | Sales Tax Credit Notes | CN-2026-00001 |
| SCCN | Sales Commercial Credit Notes | CCN-2026-00001 |
| SBI | Self-billed Tax Invoices | SBI-2026-00001 |
| SBCN | Self-billed Tax Credit Notes | SBCN-2026-00001 |
| PI | Purchase Invoices | PI-2026-00001 |
| PCN | Purchase Credit Notes | PCN-2026-00001 |
| CUS | Customer Codes | CUST-00001 |
| VEN | Vendor Codes | VEND-00001 |
Add or edit a series
Open the form
Select Add New, or Edit on a series.
Configure
Set the code, name, category, direction, prefix/format, and next number, and whether it's the default for its category.
Save
The next document of that type will use this series.
Warning
Changing the next number affects the numbering of future documents. Keep numbering sequential to stay compliant and avoid duplicate numbers.
Note
The Customer Codes and Vendor Codes series (direction Master Data)
are used when you create a customer or vendor and leave its Code empty —
the next code (for example CUST-00001) is assigned automatically. Enter a
code yourself to override the series for that record.
