Hi,  
i want to make a modification in Projects category -\>Project overview tab. As you scroll down this tab you will see a summary of the invoices to the customer and beneeth them the invoices to the supplier.  
The supplier invoices appear in a form “SI043-3423 - RefSupplierShort” which is very helpfull to appear the reference.  
The customer invoices appear in a form “FA2344-3343” and if you move your mouse over you can see more information.

My question is how can i change the customer invoices to appear like “FA2344-3343 - RefCustomer”

Or if this is too hard can i change the array that they appear and add an extra column with RefCustomer?

Hi Arisnik,

Please refer to the screenshot below for customization of invoice numbers. You can reach this link from Setup\>Modules/Applications\>Invoices\>Miscellaneous

From the screenshot, there is only customer code can be appended but not customer name.

If this reply answers your question, kindly click “solution” checkbox so that others searching for same problem can easily check this thread without wait for someone to answer.

Thank you for your answer,  
but i don’t want to modify the numeric part of the invoice. The solution you propose will be great if there was a way to add the RefCustomer field to the name of the invoice.

Please refer to the picture. Except the cccc customer code, if you want to add any other field, you may need to customize the PHP code either by yourself or through a dolibarr partner.

thanks

Hi @MiwatoMikoto

You will have to develop a custom module for this. Where you can define your own invoice title rule.
