The following parts are located at the very top of the Main Invoice Screen:
# (Invoice Number) This is the number of the invoice. The program automatically numbers invoices for you. If desired, you can choose the number at which you want invoices to start. Invoice numbers are set in the Basic Setup portion of the program which is reached by selecting FILE from the Menu Bar and clicking on BASIC SETUP. At times you may find it helpful to copy the invoice number to the clipboard. To do so, place your mouse on the number and double click. Invoice Date The date of the invoice appears directly after the number. The date is inserted automatically for you as you create new invoices. Generally, you should let the program insert the date, but, if desired, it can be changed. The date format can be changed in the Basic Setup part of the program. Customer # (Customer Number) If you have customers that order from you on a regular basis, you should assign them a customer number. By entering a customer number, the program will automatically print their billing and shipping address and other information on the invoice for you. (For more information on Customer Numbers, see Customer Numbers and Customer Information Database.) If you click on the "L" button ("L" is for "List") or double-click your mouse in this blank, a pop-up list of all of your customers & customer numbers will appear, and you can select the one you want. You can also bring up this list by 1) pressing Ctrl+L; 2) by selecting EDIT from the Menu Bar and PASTE FROM LIST; or 3) by clicking the right mouse button and selecting "Customer or Product List" from the Speed Menu. If your customer has a Customer Number, then appearing directly after it will be another number: the customer's Billing Group Number. A Billing Group Number is used for billing purposes. Some customers may have two more addresses to which you ship. If you ship regularly to these locations, you'll probably assign a different Customer Number to each shipping address. (Customer Numbers and Group Numbers are assigned in the Customer Information Database.) Even though the Customer Numbers may be different, all would have the same Billing Group Number. AnyOrder will use the Group Number when preparing billing statements. It gathers all invoices with the same Group Number together on one statement, providing you and your customer with an accurate record of account activity.
