Company system settings

The named company values documents and emails read — name, ABN, contact details, and the invoice and credit-note prefixes.

Settings → Company System Settings (/operations/settings/system). A table of named values. Each row has a Name, a Key, a Value and an optional Description.

The application looks a value up by its key, so the key is what matters. Once a row exists its key cannot be changed — the pencil edits only the name, value and description.

KeyUsed for
company_name, abn, address, mobile, email_operationsThe company block on invoice and credit-note PDFs, statements and emails.
invoicesThe prefix on new invoice numbers (<prefix>-000123).
credit_notesThe prefix on new credit-note numbers.
currency, currency_symbolMoney formatting on credit-note PDFs.

Changing a prefix affects new numbers only. Existing invoices keep the number they were issued with.

Add Setting creates a row. The trash icon deletes one.

Deleting a key the system reads does not break anything outright — the code falls back to a built-in default — but the document will quietly change. Edit the value instead.

Connote, manifest and quote numbers are not set here. They come from Number Series.
