What if you were to change the invoice form in Crystal to put the Company number in front of the invoice number giving you all 7 digits.
Yes the invoice numbers could be used in each company, but the prefix printed on the invoice would tell accounting which company to log into to work with the invoice.

It won't take nearly as long for company 7 to get there... Still long enough, I guess, but I was just waiting for someone to want to start with 900,000 and that started the whole conversation. "So it rolls back to 1, right?" Uhhhhhhh... Actually, per Epicor, the world is indeed flat, and you fall off the edge at 9,999,999. It should still take a lot longer than I will be responsible for it, so... :)
