Invoice numbers in Sage Accounts

We have just switched over to Sage Professional accounts and we're having a problem with our invoicing. 

 

Our jobs traditionally have a number, which is the job number eg 3378 and then we invoice several invoices under that number ie 3378-1, 3378-2 etc. Now we can't do that in the new package and the support helpline can't offer any suggestions rather than use the order numbers. But that doesn't help as it doesn't solve the problem.I've tried slashes and dashes and full stops and letters and everything else but nothing works.

 

Any suggestions? We are surely not the only people who have this problem.

VAT invoice sequence - potentially misleading .....

Available solution ... but probably too difficult
