External Reference Number on Sales Invoicing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by meanjomer08 100

Hi!

I want to know if there is a field in the Generate Customer Invoice action where I can manually enter an external reference number related to the invoice.

And if it is possible that I can either see or extract that reference number in the Invoice Journal Query Form or in the AR Payment Journal.

I already saw Document Number in the CustInvoiceJour table but the data cannot be manually entered nor can be seen in the form when generating the sales invoice.

Please help!

Thanks.

    • In standard AX, I don’t see any option to put reference, at time of invoicing.

    • Even if someone suggests you to use a field of sales order form, it would not be appropriate, because a sales order can have multiple invoices; hence multiple invoice references cannot be accommodated with one record of SalesTable, in standard AX.

    • Using customization, it is doable easily.

    Hi Sohaib,

    I believe what you said its true but my colleague found out that we can actually add in the properties of SalesParmTable.Num_W a CountryRegionCode to enable this editable field during sales invoicing.

    Thanks Sir.

    Its a good workaround to make a free field usable by adding your country region
