Yes, you can change the customer. But after the invoice is created, you need to click the Edit Invoice button on the toolbar in order to do this. When you click that button, you’ll get a window just like the one when you first created the invoice. Re-select your customer and then continue. The invoice will now be assigned to the new customer.
On the second question, yes, you can create duplicate invoice numbers. Your options are to change the invoice number to something else, or don’t specify an invoice number and let the system automatically create one for you. If you have a numbering pattern other than simply 1,2,3 et cetera, you can change the settings for the numbering pattern in File > Properties > Counters. Regards, Adrien p.s. - Again, I’m not sure if you have a setting mixed up or not, but there is no need to post to the list twice. You did so originally with the subject line ’support’ and another with the subject line ‘invoice - Modify the customer’ now you’ve replied via the ’support’ thread which I did not reply to, and have also replied to the mailing list digest without changing the subject line. So now instead of one conversation thread people can follow, they have 3. Please, just hit ‘reply-list’ or ‘reply-all’ one time to this message and refrain from copying that reply to other message threads. If you are using the digest, please be sure to replace the subject line with the one specific to your topic, and only quote what is relevant to your topic, not the entire digest. > On Apr 2, 2018, at 5:25 PM, Maroon Khalil <mar...@prolane.net> wrote: > Hi Adrien,, > > Thank you for your answer, > What you mentioned is clear > The point is : if I issued an invoice by mistake to a specific customer , > so I need to change the customer of that invoice, > > that’s not doable ,!!! > > One more thing we noticed is that if you create a new invoice with same > invoice number it create it with no issue , so you get 2 invoices under > the same number ( this shouldn’t happen by the way) > > > Please let me know > > regards >> On Apr 2, 2018, at 3:22 PM, Adrien Monteleone <adrien.montele...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >> No need to post to the list twice. >> >> Please read through the Help Guide & the Tutorial & Concepts Guide posted on >> the website: http://gnucash.org/docs.phtml >> >> Particularly, read over Chapter 7 of the Help “Business Features” and >> Section III of the Tutorial & Concepts Guide “Managing Business Finances”. >> >> You need to create your customers first. >> >> Then create an invoice.
