Extending sales_invoice

Hello fellas,

Im actually testing extending sales_invoice. What i want to do is add a couple of fields to sales_invoice, adding longitude & latitude, to know where the invoice was payed in a mobile environment.
As far as I understand, I should add both fields to the docType sales_invoice, and modify sales_invoice.js & .py, so i can insert a google map to show the location if the fields are not null.
Is it correct or should I take care of something else?

Thanx,
M

Hey, Marta!

You can do it this way, the problem is that when you need to update ERPNext you need to manage all these changes, which can stagnate your project in a particular version.

I recommend you to use custom fields, and at best you can create an installation script within an app to insert these custom fields for you.
