Suggested by Monika Kowalka – Completed
It would be nice to extend the Invoice Id to at least 30 length. It's not country specific, but world wide need. Unfortunately, Shorter number (what means wrong number of the invoice) will be reflected in bookings and in SAF-T file (XML files required by the Authority in Poland). Manual workaround exists, to manually correct the SAF-T file before sending to government, but this is not a good approach because still the wrong number is in the system and is not the same like on reports send to tax authority which can effect on penalties as well. From July 2019 there is an addition to the regulations of the information reported in SAF-T files, stating that if information is incorrect there is a charge of 500 PLN for each mistake.
Status Details
Released in 10.0.40
Feature name: Extend the length of invoice number for vendor invoice
-
We need the same for one of our customers which is active in Poland too. But they need it to be extended to 50 characters, not to 30. They have in last year (2018), quite some invoice ids over 30 characters.
-
Particularly important for invoices from utility companies whose invoice numbers are often very long. 50 characters seems reasonable. The current field ultimately extends from the Num (number sequence) EDT which makes no sense at all since the supplier's invoice number would never be auto generated by the system. This also means that the only way we can customise the solution to resolve this is to increase the size of the Num EDT such that all number sequence fields become the same size as needed for supplier invoice numbers.

Yes this would be useful feature!
-
We also need a longer invoice number in our projects. I think we need a posibility to increase the size in the projects with extensions. We need to change the 'extends' of InvoiceID-EDT (and the other voucher numbers) from 'NUM' to a much smaller EDT group. Than we are free in the projects.
-
We have a customer who currently have multiple invoices with invoice ID having more than 25 characters & are expected to have more coming in with the same format. This would be a very helpful feature.
-
Very much needed and useful functionality!
-
Would be very useful if the field can be extended.

Our company orders several hundred times per year through Amazon, and Amazon's invoice numbers extend the 20 characters many times. Even 30 characters are not enough sometimes, 50 would be much better. Too short invoice number in the system means incorrect booking data, incorrect money transfer details, need of more manual corrections and explanations etc. Given the fact that there are quite a few large companies in the world that use longer than 20 characters for their invoice numbers, I think the restriction of 20 characters in D365F&O is quite outdated.
-
50 characters seems reasonable, or at least the ability for us to extend from 20 characters if required.
