Customer requested we have this feature as Analyst used to have it, and it prevents from duplicate reference numbers from being used.

I just spent over an hour looking for a receivable that was paid but that I had entered twice (1 paid, 1 not). If it would warn us that the reference number was used before that wouldn't happen. I scrolled through the transaction search screen of over 1000 entries and found 2 others that were entered twice (this is in receivables). There has been 30 votes on this problem, yet not a word if it is coming or that they won't make it happen.
When entering an invoice#/reference either through purchases or sales window the system would generate a warning if that invoice#/reference already exists.
would be nice when entering a transaction if the program could through a flag when a duplicate amount has been entered instead of waiting till you reconcile to find it.

Will this ever happen?
