          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-1
          Add Draft => DRAFT-{num}

          => DRAFT-2
          Convert DRAFT-2 to invoice => INVOICE-

          {NUM}

          => INVOICE-1000
          Add Draft => DRAFT-

          {num}

          => DRAFT-2
