Keep invoice numbers consistent and professional

Sequential invoice numbers are required for tax purposes in most countries, and they make it easy to track which invoices have been paid, reference a specific document in correspondence, and spot gaps if a number is skipped. The problem is remembering where you left off and keeping a consistent format — especially when you bill multiple clients or run separate series for retainers and project work.

This generator stores your prefix and counter in your browser. Click "Generate next number" and it shows the next one — ready to copy into InvoicePro or wherever you create your invoices. Nothing is uploaded, the counter persists between sessions, and you can run up to 3 named series simultaneously.

Frequently asked questions
