Your own numbers on every quotation and order.

Here is what the app does, in plain terms:

Gives your quotations and sale orders their own numbering.
Set your own prefix, suffix and number length.
Keep one number from quotation to order, or switch the prefix when it is confirmed.
Reset the counter every year, automatically.
Set a custom number by hand when you need to — with a logged reason.
01Install

It installs like any other Odoo app

Find it in Apps and install it. A Sale Order Numbering section appears in your Sales settings.

02Configure

Set your numbering format in one place

Choose your prefix, suffix and number length, and pick when the counter resets — all from one settings form.

03Continuous mode

Same number, quotation to order

In continuous mode, the number a quotation gets stays the same when it becomes a confirmed sale order.

04State-based mode

Or a different prefix once confirmed

Prefer a QT number for quotations and an SO number for confirmed orders? State-based mode flips the prefix on confirmation.

05Manual override

Set a specific number by hand

Need a one-off number? A "Set Custom Number" button lets you enter it, with a short reason for the change.

06Audit trail

Every number change is logged

Manual changes are recorded in the order's chatter with the reason, so you always have a clear history.

Good to know

Flexible, tidy, and fully tracked.

Two numbering styles

Keep the same number from quotation to sale order, or use a different prefix for each stage. You choose the one that fits your workflow.

Yearly reset, automatic

Start your counter fresh each year, with the year in the number if you want. No manual resets to remember.

Every change is logged

Manual number changes are recorded in the order's chatter with a reason, so you always have an audit trail.

Questions & answers

Quick answers before you buy.

Do I need to set anything up?
You set your format once in Sales settings — prefix, suffix, length and mode. After that, new quotations and orders are numbered automatically.
Which Odoo versions and editions does it work on?
Odoo 17, 18 and 19, on both Community and Enterprise.
Can I keep the same number from quotation to sale order?
Yes. In continuous mode the number stays the same. In state-based mode you can use a different prefix once the order is confirmed.
Can I set a number by hand?
Yes. A "Set Custom Number" button lets you enter a specific number, with a reason that is logged in the chatter.
Does it change my existing orders?
No. It applies to new records from the point you configure it. Existing orders keep their current numbers.
