Create a series
Create a document numbering series. Optional `number_format` sets the numbering mask (padding + year token + separator, e.g. `{code}-{YYYY}-{00000}`); a malformed mask returns 422. Optional `initial_number` (>= 1) starts the counter at a given value to continue an existing numbering when migrating (defaults to 1). The same code may be reused across document types (multi-series). Once created, a series is immutable per AEAT compliance (the `PUT` method returns 405), so `number_format` and `initial_number` can only be set here.

Header Parameters
Unique key generated by the client to ensure idempotency on retries. It lets you safely resend the same request: the first response is cached and returned without re-executing the mutation. It is an opaque string to the server; any unique value of up to 64 characters is valid (UUID v7, UUID v4, ULID, nanoid, etc.). UUID v7 is recommended for consistency with the API identifiers. The same key reused with a different body returns 409 idempotency_key_reused.

}Archive a series
Archive a series so it stops appearing as available for new documents. Fails with 409 if the series is the default and the only active series of its type. Returns 204 on success.
Get the default series for a document type
Return the default numbering series for the given document type (invoice, quote, proforma, delivery_note). Returns 404 when no default is configured.
