Description
Pro forma and draft invoices are temporary invoices. Therefore the current scheme of calculating the next invoice number based on the invoice format can result in re-use of numbers no longer in use by those formats.
This occurs because when a pro forma or draft invoice is converted to a regular invoice its id_format and id_value is modified to meet the invoice format configured in settings. When this happens to the highest id_value invoice of that particular type, this essentially reduces the current highest id_value for an invoice of that type.
For example:
Add Draft => DRAFT-
{num} => DRAFT-1Add Draft => DRAFT-{num}
=> DRAFT-2
Convert DRAFT-2 to invoice => INVOICE-
=> INVOICE-1000
Add Draft => DRAFT-
=> DRAFT-2
