To modify/update the auto-generated invoice number for the new financial year:

*   Go to the _Invoices_ module on the left sidebar.
*   Click the **\+ New** button on the top right corner of the page to create a new invoice.
*   Go to the _Invoice#_ field and click the **Gear** icon next to it.
*   Edit the prefix of the invoice number based on the new financial year’s sequence. For example, if you’ve been using INV23-xxxx, you can change it to INV24-xxxx.
*   Edit the _Next Number_ field if you would also like the invoice number to start from one for the new financial year.
*   Click **Save.**

Now, the invoice number will be auto-generated with the new prefix and next number for every new invoice.
