Amer,
Glad to see you manged to develop an ideal "development solution" to someone
else's problem. I have never professed to be an ace developer but I know how
the application works. The first words we learn in AX training is "Best
Practice" so pointing out future flaws that may arise out of "dream" ad-hoc
code and modifications which go against it is always a plus. Perhaps next
time you will read and uderstand the thinking behind before criticizing others?
Kenneth,
If I understand correctly you want to reuse the proforma invoice id when you
are ready to post the actual sales invoice correct?
If this is the case then my original answer still stands. Invoice id is a
primary field in most AR tables and is the main identifier in transaction lines
and tracking. Forcing Axapta to use the exact same id for pro-forma invoice
and sales invoice can potentially spell disaster for reconciliation purposes.
In most axapta transactions tables the invoice id field is default set to
reject duplicates.
If this is an absolute requirement of your client after all considerations you
could probably modify code to delete the proforma invoice header and lines
from all related tables upon posting of the final sales invoice.
Good luck.

Subject: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Re: proforma invoice with invoice number
Amer,
Thank you for replying. I think your solution is not to what my
question is.
I am trying to have proforma invoice assigned with an Invoice Id
while standard proforma invoice hasn't the invoice id.
Apart from that, the proforma invoice id will then reused in
commercial invoice hence proforma invoice and commercial invoice both
assigned with invoice id, and sharing one invoice id.
Has any expert implemented Axapta with such requirement before?
Thanks in advance for your help.
