I number mine by the date the contract is started suffixed with the month of the agreement. For example, if started working for a client on June 1, 2008, their first invoice would be numbered 060108-01. Now if I start working for two clients on same date, the other client would start be 060108A-01. __________________ Tamika R.

I use QuickBooks for my billing and it automatically assigns the numbers. I started my invoice numbers at 100. __________________ Rebecka Melson ~ Virtual Business Services

I am similar to Rebecka. I use Quickbooks Pro and it automatically calculates the invoice numbers. For me, my importance lies in the client's name and date of invoice opposed to the actual invoice number. __________________ Vanessa Lindsay, REPA www.NessLindsay.com
