== Numbering modules ==

= Numbering modules =

For each entity created in the application, Dolibarr assigns a reference. In order to adapt the reference to any use, Dolibarr use modules to define the rule of generation of this reference. Several modules are supplied with application. Some are generic and are used to define the mask numbering (number on x characters, with or without prefix, including the date or not, etc.), which can meet most needs. However, there are still cases where the modules provided does not meet the need. In this case it is necessary to develop its own numbering module.
