Preferences: Job numbers
TimeCache requires a job number for every project/matter it tracks. The options on this panel let you set your preferences for how those will be entered.

Enter Job numbers manually/Automatic job numbering beginning at: Choose between automatic job numbering (and set the starting number) or manual job numbering by highlighting one of these radio buttons. If you choose manual job numbering, TimeCache prompts you for a job number each time you create a new Project. If you choose automatic job numbering, TimeCache increments the beginning number you enter in this setting for each new project listing you create. The automatic job numbering sequence is stored with each data file. We recommend using at least four-digit numbers for job numbering sequences.

NOTE: The above two options are available only when there is a data file open.

Allow duplicate job numbers for different clients: If you check this box, TimeCache lets you enter the same job number for different clients. If it's left unchecked, you must enter a unique job number for every project. This setting is only available when you have TimeCache Preferences set to use manual job numbering.
