Next you can set static variable (e. g. number indicating document type, project, client, …), date format and dynamic variable (please think of how many documents in total you would need to create for this document type in that particular period). You can also change order for these 3 parameters, simply drag&drop any of them. In the end, you just enter name for the new number series and choose whether it should be default for the particular document type.
Number series selection
For each document type there is at least one number series and also at most one default series. Default number series is automatically chosen when creating new document, but it can be changed. For each document there can be, of course, just one number series chosen. According to it Trovi will generate closest available document number (e. g. invoice number).Number series can be chosen while creating document, but can be modified anytime later. In addition to the choice of number series, also document number can be changed. Trovi will always automatically choose closest available document number in the particular number series.

If your situation allows so, we recommend activating the service at the beginning of the month to get the most out of the fee. Before activating the service, it is also necessary to add a payment card, which will be used for payments for the Open Banking service. You can add a card in the settings of the service or go straight to the activation, where Trovi will automatically notify you and allow you to add the card.

After selecting particular accounts and confirming your selection, you will be redirected back to the Trovi, where you will be able to work with your accounts.

Each account will be authorized for 90 days, after this period it will be necessary to reauthorize each account (reauthorization can be done for all accounts at once).
