===== Project Auto-numbering =====

This feature automatically assigns a number (or more complex code) correlating to new projects, proposals, work orders, etc.
To make use of it, please go to Settings -> Configuration -> General -> Use automatic incremental prefixes in names -> check Project.

If this option is enabled for projects, then when adding a project, an automatically generated number will be prepended to the name of the project (idem for other object types if selected).

NOTE: This feature is only available for the Professional and Enterprise editions of Feng Office
