Invoice numbering guidelines for billers
Adfin allows platforms to define a custom invoice number at the time of creation. Each subsequent invoice in the series will automatically append an incremented suffix, ensuring uniqueness within that series.
Example structure
When your platform specifies a base invoice number, for example, INV-101
, Adfin will automatically append unique suffixes for each additional invoice in the sequence. The result would look like:
INV-101-1
INV-101-2
INV-101-3
...
INV-101-n
Implementation notes
This structure ensures each invoice has a unique identifier while remaining straightforward to implement.
Responsibility of unique invoice numbers:
The initial invoice number’s uniqueness is the responsibility of the biller. Adfin will maintain uniqueness across subsequent invoices by appending the incremented suffix.
