-'''If unchecked''', SME will generate its own invoice numbers based on the last invoice number in QuickBooks (recommended)
-This is how it works:
-#       Invoice generated in SME and SME assigns an invoice number.
-#       Sync invoice over to QuickBooks.
-#       Invoice in QuickBooks retains the invoice number from the SME invoice.
-#       If you create a new invoice in QuickBooks, QuickBooks will use this invoice number to calculate the next available invoice number.
-After syncing with QuickBooks, SME updates the '''Next Invoice #''' based on the Next Available Invoice Number in QuickBooks.

-'''Avoiding Duplicate Invoice Numbers'''
-In QuickBooks, duplicate invoice numbers can occur if you sync SME invoices over to QuickBooks and then enter a new invoice in QuickBooks. QuickBooks will generate the invoice number for the new invoice based on the last SME invoice number synced. Then if you create a new invoice in SME, SME will assign a new invoice number based off the last invoice number in SME (the same number for the QB generated invoice).
-To keep from having an issue with duplicate invoice numbers, follow these steps before you enter invoices directly in QuickBooks:
-'''Initial Setup''' - In SQLink, go to '''File'''> '''Setup'''. Click '''Edit''' at the bottom. Uncheck the '''Don’t update next invoice number''' option. Click '''Save''' at the bottom.
-<br>1.       Run a sync between SME and QuickBooks to export any invoices from SME and update QuickBooks last invoice #.
-<br>·            Open SME, SQLink, and QuickBooks.
-<br>·            In SME, click '''Tools''' > '''Sync QuickBooks'''.
-<br>·            In SQLink, click '''Processes''' > '''Start Processes'''.
-<br>2.       Enter the invoices in QuickBooks as needed.
-<br>3.       Run another sync to import the last QuickBooks invoice number into SME.
-'''Don't update next invoice number - checked'''
-[[File:DontUpdateNextInvoicenumberChecked.jpg]]
-If checked, SME will generate an invoice number separate from the invoice numbers in QuickBooks. SME will not look to the next available invoice number in QuickBooks to update SME's Next Invioce #. However, if you send an invoice from SME over to QuickBooks with the invoice number 10, when you generate a new invoice in QuickBooks, QuickBooks will increment off the last invoice number so the invoice number would be 11.
