As far as I know, the addition of a letter to the year, which is useful in the case you cite in the same paper 2 or more publications by the same author with different titles but published in the same year, depends from the specific citation style used and selected once and for all in the selection window in LyX where you also select the bib file. For example, econometrica, which is one of the citation styles proposed by LyX, manages the addition of a letter to the publication year in the needed cases. Pierfranco
