I thought the document number was assigned on creation, but I'd have to

change the number to something like 'use next' if you made an error

If the invoice can not be deleted before posting, that would probably mean
it is unsuitable for use in the UK, as I believe invoice numbers have to be
created sequentially. One should *not* have invoice numbers of 1, 2, 4, 7
etc.
That shouldn't be a problem since you can edit the numbers if need be.
But that would mean you'd need to devise of separate quote number
system. (investigate File > Properties where you can set numbering schemes)
There are plenty of UK users here on this list. I'm sure one of them can
give some tips in this regard.
The Business Features originally were created by a dev for their own
limited use case. Some UI improvements and bug fixes have been made over
the years, but the functionality hasn't really been expanded much for
some time. (I think Credit Notes being added was the last major change
and that was way back in 2.4.x or early 2.6.x)
The user interface is obviously important, but the lack of some basic
functionality is annoying. >
The other thing that I would like (support for crypto currencies) is
something that I expect I could easily add to the source code myself. But
there’s no way I could add the invoice/proforma invoice, is not something
that I am going to be able to do.
I will have a look around and see if other open-source software that might
meet my needs better.
I think the ability to convert a quotation into an invoice, *and also to a
proforma invoice*, is pretty is pretty important.
Quotations/Proformas are not basic functionality. They aren't even
'accounting'. (Invoices and Credit Notes are however)
(though as I noted before, some preliminary work has been done on
quotations, but it has not been finalized or implemented yet)
Best of luck.

Adrien
