Custom field+naming series issue

Hi!

I’ve been trying to set naming series for Item to work with custom field.
example - ITEM-.my_field.###
but it doesn’t work. It only returns literal name like ITEM-my_field001.
Also tried with standard fields with no luck.
Is there a way the same could be achieved with custom script?

It works great on sales order and quotation but not for naming Items.

I’m facing the same issue. I cannot use curly braces and when i used just .my_field. it names the doc with literally my_field instead of applying the value of that field Any pointers or suggestions on how to make it work?

I’m facing the same issue.

  • If I put curly brackets, it will say that I cannot use curly brackets
  • If i use a custom field .customer_code., it will be literally customer_code.

If I use .customer., it will generate the full customer name correctly
