Question

I want to re-numbering of invoices. The renumbering should be composed as follow.

I would like this format for invoice ID's: INV-10001-2014

INV-00001-13; INV-00002-13; O-00003-13; ['INV' for invoice, 5 places for the number; “-“ ; current year. Next year this numbering should finish in 14 (from 2014).

You can customize order/invoice/creditmemo/shipment number (increment_id) by editing the following Class :

Mage_Eav_Model_Entity_Increment_Numeric

Especially, closely look at the code of the following methods:

getNextId() , getPrefix() , getPadLength() , format($id)

Now, you won't find the method definition for methods getPrefix() , getPadLength() because these are magic getter methods. You can define these methods according to your desire.

For an example:

public function getPrefix(){
     $prefix = $this->_getData('prefix');
     /* Do some customization */
    return $prefix;
} 
public function getPadLength()
{ 
     $padLength = $this->_getData('pad_length');

     /* Do some customization */

     return $padLength;
}

This way, you don't have to manually change anything in the database structures for this to achieve.

Hope this will help you.

This will affect ALL the entities mentioned by you at the start of the answer ( order/invoice/creditmemo/shipment number ) To only updated the Invoice Number format one would have to follow another approach. — Dragos, Sep 29 '14 at 14:38

you can use the Event sales_order_invoice_save_before to set the custom invoice number

In your observer method use

$invoice = $observer->getInvoice();

$newInvoiceId = 'Your new Invoice id'

$invoice->setIncrementId($newInvoiceId);
