    • General

      • You have the option to set your starting invoice number. Most of our customers start with the default, but if you have a numbering sequence that works for your company, you can set the series of numbers you prefer. Whatever number you pick, estimates and invoice numbers will go up sequentially from there. Note: If you plan to integrate with Quickbooks online, we will show the Quickbooks number sequence in the webapp. On the mobile application, we will show both FieldsPulse and Quickbooks.

      • You also have the option to change the terminology. If estimate does not translate in your business, you can change the name to Quote, Bid or Proposal.

      • Make sure your currency and tax rates are set up correctly.
