Company wise Naming Settings #44281

Open hpotabatti opened 4 days ago

hpotabatti commented 4 days ago

Currently, the system has a generic Naming Settings doctype that does not differentiate between Companies. Hence, currently, any transaction that gets created is in general sequential order even if the companies are different. Eg:

Naming Setting Serial for Sales Invoice : SINV-###

Companies: Reliance Insurance Reliance Petroleum

Invoice Number || Company

SINV-001 || Reliance Insurance SINV-002 || Reliance Petroleum

Some companies/organizations may find this useful but a considerable few other companies will find this difficult to work with.

Hence, we would need Company selection in Naming Settings to specify the company and the transaction the Naming Sequence is applicable for.

Secondly, working with the current sequence is also a major challenge when a new company is added to the existing company and both of them are expected to have same sequence or different sequence while also maintaining the sanity and tracability.

I support this feature too. If ERPNext is multi-company, then it should be able to handle Naming Series based on the company.
