# Get invoicing settings

> OAuth scope: `client_invoices.read`

Returns the organization's invoicing settings. Only `numbering_mode` is exposed. It controls whether invoice, credit note and quote numbers are generated automatically or entered manually. Organizations that never changed it use `automatic`.

Recurring invoices require `numbering_mode` to be `automatic`. Call `PUT /v2/settings` with `{"numbering_mode": "automatic"}` to enable it.
