What’s everyone doing to prevent running out of numbers on auto number sequencing.

In particular with sales orders...we have a numbering sequence of SA00000 through SA99999 which we are into our SA99XXX so we will run out of numbers soon. Should I just add another digit to this or should I use start dates with different sequences?

I’ve run into this in the past already with production tickets and invoices where I just added another digit to give me 999,999 numbers before running out.

 

Thanks

Hello,

I think you have correctly stated the two options:  Add a digit or start a new series with a certain start date and different leading characters.
