Stamp sequence logic

Hello,

In my country a company can ask for approval to be a “auto printer” of invoices, otherwise invoice numbering must be pre-stamped.

This auto printer approval comes with an ID that must be included in the invoice, part of the approval definition includes:

  • establishment, 3 digits number: ###
  • cashier or point of sale, 3 digits number: ###
  • approved invoice range, 7 digits: ####### to #######.
  • authorization date
  • validity period / end date.

In practice, along the approval ID for the invoice lot, the invoices must include the invoice number in the form of:

###-###-#######

And the approval ID + end of validity.

Can this be implemented with Invoice Ninja?

Hi,

I would think so, may be you can use custom fields?

For the “stamp approval ID”, most probably. But what about the constraints for an invoice:

  • it must be related to an stamp approval ID to exist
  • that the number of invoice must come from the delegated range
  • that range can only be used during the valid period of the stamp approval
  • there will be several stamp approvals for a given point of sale during its lifetime
  • several points of sales can co-exist and must handle their own stamp approvals and ranges.

I think it would need to handled manually, not sure it’s a complete solution.

Thanks for the feedback!
