If you want to check the highest invoice number available, use the invoice list view to see the last created invoice number
Housecall Pro will always run Estimate, Job and Invoice numbers in sequential order, starting from the HIGHEST number in the system. This means, if you change an invoice number to #100 but there is an invoice in the system listed as #200, the next invoice created will be #201, then #202, #203, etc.
By default, HouseCall Pro accounts are configured using Simple Invoicing, which simply put means that creating a job will automatically create an Invoice. Accounts that have Progress Invoicing turned on will not automatically display an invoice number on the Job Details page.

Will my job and invoice number always stay the same number as one another?
- This depends - invoice, job and estimate numbers are all independent. This means, an estimate, Job and/or Invoice can have the same number and be completely unrelated.
- For most HouseCall pro users, creating a Job will automatically create an invoice.
- For those using Progress Invoicing, the Job and Invoice numbers can diverge if you have many invoices to one job or are using deposits.
Can I make my invoice number lower?
- Yes, if that lower number is available you can re-set the invoice number to something lower. We do not recommend constantly changing numbers. Please keep in mind that the next job you create, the invoice will pick up from the last highest number.
- Please chat into support if you require assistance here.
If I edit the invoice number, will this cause issues with Quickbooks?
- No, currently we push JOB information to QuickBooks to ensure all critical information is sent ex. payment, due dates, customer details, etc. The invoice number in Housecall Pro does not go over to Quickbooks. Learn more about what information goes over from Housecall Pro to QuickBooks HERE.
Will the system warn me about duplicates?
- Yes, you will see an error return if you enter an invoice number that is already in use.
