possible to make invoice/cash sale number = sales order number?

edited Dec 23, 2019 11:02PM in Accounting / ERP 10 comments

It is endlessly disconcerting and inconvenient that NetSuite has separate number series for each type of transaction.  I am constantly having to explain to customers that the sales order number shown on their packing slip will be different than the invoice number.  It seems to us that most of the world expects Order 1234 to become Invoice 1234, and we'd LOVE it if we could make NetSuite do that for us.

Is there any way to have Invoices/Cash Sales grab the number of the Sales Order that generated them, and default to that?  Some sort of script?  If I manually billed each order, I could fill it in myself, but I don't relish not being able to use bulk billing...

Howdy, Stranger!
