Invoice number - validating an invoice will not re-use the internal_number if exists

Question

Dears,
Usually, Upon Validating an invoice, it takes a new sequence from sequence (e.g. SAJ/%(year)s/), and in case that invoice has an internal_number (case of canceled invoice set to draft), it should use its internal_number. But the unwanted behavior now is when validating a draft invoice - previously canceled  - the system generates new sequence number. I need to re-use the existing internal number.

Thank you,

The problem was from a configuration in the Journal. Every time I validate an invoice it will create new move with new Sequence, so I unchecked the Autopost Created Move.
Accounting-> Invoice -> Sales Journal (account.journal) -> untick Autopost Created Move
