Hi, you can also check following commands out:
fred-admin --add_invoice_number_prefix (create configuration)
add_invoice_number_prefix options:
--add_invoice_number_prefix add invoice number prefix for zones and
invoice
types in invoice_number_prefix if they don't
exist
--prefix arg two-digit invoice number prefix
--zone_fqdn arg zone name
--invoice_type_name arg name of invoice type (advance, account, ...)
fred-admin --create_invoice_prefixes [--for_current_year] (this command
is designed to be added to cron)
If you need more control over prefix format use Piotrs approach.
Best regards

I am finding in FRED that I have to issue new
invoice prefixes now that the year has changed
from 2017 to 2018.
If I do not do this then I get an error :
"Missing invoice prefix"
when I try to add credit to a registrar account using the
#fred-admin --invoice_credit
command
I am having to do this for each zone which is painful because I have 10+ zones.
Then write a simple loop in bash. ;-) Personally I don't see how running even 20
commands once per
year is painful...?
Is there a way to update this automatically when
the year changes ?
Just write the script and cron it...
Having this to be done manually suits my needs and I'd like it to stay as it is.
Money, invoicing, prefixes, banks and so on aren't the same all over the world. So I
guess creating
"one fits all" solution is not so easy.
Additionally, is there a way that I can run the
#fred-admin --invoice_credit
command for a zone and land on the correct prefix every time ?
Isn't it working this way? I mean: each zone should have unique prefix anyway and
based on the zone
of the invoice, FRED selects the correct prefix.
In many cases when I run the command
#fred-admin --invoice_credit
I get the error
DEATAIL: Key (prefix)=(interger) already exits
and I have to run the command a few more times before I land on an interger that the
command accepts>
How can I get around this and land on the correct interger for the command without having
to
repeat it?
I guess this happens because you don't have a unique prefix per zone. Therefore they
overlap sometimes.
Make sure each zone has exactly one unique prefix for 2018.
If you have 20 zones, this can work like this:
fred-admin --invoice_add_prefix --zone_fqdn=one.zone --type=0 --prefix=2018010000
fred-admin --invoice_add_prefix --zone_fqdn=two.zone --type=0 --prefix=2018020000
...
fred-admin --invoice_add_prefix --zone_fqdn=twenty.zone --type=0 --prefix=2018200000
