How to link a sales invoice to a sales order?

Hi Jaime,

Here’s a way to ensure that you can generate the same number of a document.

How to remove revisions from serial number after amend

Okay here’s how to do it. Prerequisites: System admin access Hold other people from carrying out those transactions (Sales Invoice, Delivery Note…) that you are trying to amend. To make it easy, let’s go with this example: Let’s say you are trying to modify a Sales Invoice SINV-00123 and you don’t want the -1 appendage when you modify this invoice. Step 1: Make a duplicate of the SINV-00123. It will have the latest series number, but leave it in the draft mode. Let’s say the latest series …

Further down in that document another user has listed how you can print the document with the original number even though the ERPNext appends the revision number to the document serial number.

But you have a valid point. You should be able to knock off unlinked upstream documents with downstream documents. A process similar to matching payments with invoices. Great thought! But you have to find a willing body to execute it for you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Jay
