Description
Client ID's start at 1500 and there is no way in the UI to change this. Client's also have a format of simply:
{key} and this cannot be changed in the UI either. If you edit the clients table and change id_format from {key}to say ABC-
{key} the client ID will be shown as ABC-1500 for example.Under Settings > Company > Client Options, add 2 fields for:
Client ID Start
Client ID Format
By default, Client ID Start would have 1500 in it, pulled from company_settings where key="clients_start" and Client ID Format would have a value of just {key}
pulled from company_settings where key = "clients_format".
Validate that the Client ID Format always contains the string
{key}Add a tooltip for each that says:
Client ID Start is the starting value for Client ID's. New clients will have this value, unless it is less than the value of the most recently created Client.
Client ID Format is the format of the Client ID. A value of ABC-{key}
will result in a Client ID of ABC-1500 where 1500 is the Client's ID value.
