My invoices are generated with fully staggered ID numbers and I need them to be tracked.

example.
invoice 1: ID 77
INVOICE 2: ID 89

I would like to find a solution so that my paid invoices have a followed numbering or at least get them to appear in a row on the invoices … 1,2,3,4,5,6

Hi there,

The Invoice ID within Event Espresso is the EE Transaction ID, which is an auto-incrementing ID created as each transaction is added to the database.

Currently, we do not have an option to create sequential IDs only for paid invoices.

Just to clarify, if only want an ID assigned to an invoice that is paid in full, would pending invoices simply not have an ID?

correct I only need the id for the paid ones

in fact it does not have to be the ID, it is worth taking another column with the numbering of the correlative paid invoices and being able to put it in the generated invoice.

Is there an option to connect the payments received to an external or internal platform to be able to generate the invoices in order?

I checked into this and currently, the only way you’ll get sequential invoice numbers for only paid invoices within Event Espresso is with some custom development to stored the ID within the transaction and then store the value globally to keep track of the sequence.

Is there an option to connect the payments received to an external or internal platform to be able to generate the invoices in order?

My apologies but I’m not sure I understand what you mean here.

If you are asking if you can use a custom payment method that may have the ability to store invoice ID’s only for the paid invoices then yes, but you’ll need a custom payment method within EE for it as none of our current integrations work that way.

You could try contacting the folks at codeable who may be able to build something like this into EE.
