TypeError: not enough arguments for format string (ODOO 11 on Ubuntu 16.04)

Having this error since Last July 2018:

Can't validate some entries as it creates an error. Seems its on 2 types of entry only (accounting module or now called invoicing)

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: not enough arguments for format string

Although I understand the issue, I don't understand where it comes from as its not from a module installation and it was working file for 6 months in production.

I was looking into the odoo config sequences to see what would cause this issue because :

its not creating an error for all sequences it creates it only on one

However, making changes on the sequences, didn't solved it.

I don't think I have to get into the code itself and make any change. I believe it is more during configuration that it creates the issue afterwards.

https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/12.0/odoo/addons/base/models/ir_sequence.py#L193

Is it possible to come from a python version? Should I pass to python 3.6 ? I have python 2.7 and python 3.5 installed

Updating the python3.6 didn't solve the issue Update Odoo 11 didn't solve the issue Update command on ubuntu didn't solve the issue

Appreciate if anyone would have a clue, but I'll dig some more too.
