if I understand well the number will be rendered if nothing is set before, so it will be rendered once and stay until the sale is completed.

It's a bit more complex than that. The temporary invoice number is returned so that it can be displayed to the user. However, if the sale is then suspended then the next sale will be assigned that same invoice number (if it is completed). When the suspended sale is unsuspended then the next invoice number to be used is displayed on the register (not the one that was previously displayed since it was assigned to an earlier completed sale.
