That is what I was afraid of. I can't modify the invoice because we are letting it post immediately. I have taken another path. I'm storing the value I need on the order record and then retrieving it in the invoice generation code.
This code is in InvoiceServices.java. Interestingly enough, there is a comment in createInvoiceForOrder that suggests an improvement to the code to allow an invoice date to be passed in rather than defaulting to nowTimestamp().

You'd be better off modifying the invoice separately once it's been created. Regards Scott On 14/08/2009, at 2:46 AM, Vince Clark wrote: > I did that.
