@jof2jc , Currently Batch get saved by batch_id. Go to Batch doctype and see in Auto Name field batch_id is set. If you want to change naming series then you have to set their another field name.

Hi,
1.Go to Batch Doctype
2. In Batch ID Row, Put Name=batch_id
3.Inside Naming Section-
Enter Auto Name= Batch.#####
4.Save Form.

@shraddha I’ve been using naming series for Batch doctype…but when doing bench update the update got broken…since I added naming_series field to doctype directly and set naming section…

Customize form doesn’t provide functionality to do this. Is there workaround to avoid broken update if we do changes on a doctype?
