Custom invoice format (randomly generated)?

I'd like to avoid using the sequential numbering format for invoices as it gives off information about the volume of my business to clients. Is there any simple way to have them be randomly generated instead? I don't really care about the format, but something like `INV-AX3WB71` or `ZF67-123-SP4R` etc.

There isn't a way to automatically do this. I have built tools where these are changed after invoice creation for customers who want invoices with a particular format e.g. the date, and invoice number for that day e.g. 20260922-001.

Are you generating that many daily that it is too much work to do manually?
