Below script allows you to get naming series in Sales Invoice, same as of corresponding Sales Order. Invoice uses a prefix M- but the number duplicates the SO doc name (number). Example: If Sales Order id is SO-12345, then corresponding Sales Invoice id will be set as M-12345. frappe.ui.form.on("Sales Invoice", "refresh", function(frm){ var sales_order = frm.doc.items[0].sales_order.replace("M", "M-"); if (!frm.doc.__islocal && sales_order && frm.doc.name!==sales_order){ frappe.call({ method: 'frappe.model.rename_doc.rename_doc', args: { doctype: frm.doctype, old: frm.docname, "new": sales_order, "merge": false }, }); } });
