How can ERPNext cloud customers add custom methods?

[wale]

Hi all,

How can a customer on the ERPNext cloud add a custom method? Basically, there’s an existing standard method that almost suits our requirement but just needs a little tweaking. I’m guessing we’ll have to copy the existing method, make the adjustments, and then add it as a custom method

Please advise

Thanks

Hi @rmehta

Trust you’re doing great. Don’t I need some form of permission to send a pull request?

Also, is there any step by step guide for doing this? Would appreciate any assistance

Thanks
