You can add Requirement Yogi configuration macros to change the way your requirements are indexed.

To add a configuration macro, in the page edit mode, type /requi  or /config, or click on the + dropdown like you would to add any other Confluence macro.

After adding a macro to the page, you can edit it simply by clicking on the macro:

In headings

You can ignore the numbered headings by passing a regular expression specifying the numbering format.

My headings:
