Bill-to-contact field in posted sales invoice

Posted on by FS-12120801-0 12
Hi everyone,

For a customer type "person", the Bill-to Contact is always the same as the Bill-to Name.

In the posted sales invoice, the customer name is therefore duplicated.

I did not find an option to configure this:

- Do not include the Bill-to Contact in the posted sales invoice address, or
- If Bill-to Contact = Bill-to Name, do not duplicate the line.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for your help,

Fabrice Serey

    Hello,
     
    You would have to go into that document layout and remove that field. Here is what I would do.
     
    1. Search for "Report Selection - Sales" in BC and open that page.
    2. Select "Usage" = "Invoice" and note down that report ID:
    3. Then go to "Report Layout Selection" and search for that report ID.
    4. Click on "Select Layout" in the ribbon:
    5. Find the layout being used and Export it:
    6. Make changes to that report layout in word. If it's an RDLC report you will most likely need help from a developer or you will need a tool called "Report Builder"
    7. After removing that field and adjusting the layout you can import it back into BC.
     
    With any report layout changes, I recommend working with a partner for any complex changes. For minor changes such as removing a field this should be able to get you started.
