Perhaps Slovenia was one such place. I was of course wondering if the sequence 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 etc would be acceptable? Invoice numbers in Gnucash are sequential in a legalistic way, it is simply incremented. Not every number results in an invoice to be paid, but that is (to me) analogous to cancelling a cheque, you had that one, but never spent it so its number doesn't appear in a statement. I make invoices for items which are being invoiced through a subsidiary program, where my Gnucash invoices represent a total for a time period, because it makes accounting for the income easier. Only myself and my accountant will ever see the evidence of those invoices. Each uses a number in my sequence, and if the ATO comes calling, I can demonstrate that I haven't hidden my income, which is of course all they are worried about.
