An identifiable invoice.
A series that continues.

The essentials
The Moroccan CGI, article 145-III, provides for a continuous series for invoices or documents in lieu thereof. In Factino, three framed presentations are offered, with a continuous counter. Their existence does not constitute an official list of approved formats.
Distinguish the presentation of the meter
FAC-2026-00041 contains a prefix, a year and a sequence. The style of the number may vary, but identification and continuity of the applicable series must be preserved. Factino offers FAC-2026-00041, 2026/FAC/00041 or FAC-00041. Changes in vintage do not reset the counter.
Configure before you start
In Settings, open PDF Documents & Numbering. Choose the prefix, presentation and minimum number of digits. A preview shows the expected result. After the first invoice issued, Factino locks these settings as a product protection measure; This policy does not purport to describe all legally possible series changes.
Take a history with proof
If you are coming from another software, identify the latest invoices and the series concerned. A recovery at a counter greater than 1 requires a reference and confirmation in Factino. This documents your choice, without automatically checking external history. Have the passage validated by your accountant before issuing.
Test the year change and corrections
In the operation chosen by Factino, FAC-2026-00042 is followed by FAC-2027-00043. No manual number or annual reset is offered. Old invoices remain intact. A credit note is a separate document linked to the original invoice: it is not used to reuse or erase its number.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to reset the counter to 1 every year?
Factino does not offer an annual reset. The vintage evolves and the clock continues. Special cases or series changes must be discussed with the accountant.
Can I try a PDF style without reserving an issue?
Yes. Previews are marked SPECIMEN and do not consume any numbers.
