Marked as correct! Can you tell me how you achieved that result?

@David, Could you describe the field that you would like to add to the invoice line, is it a picture, your own custom text field, a computed field, etc.? This will help me to better answer your question. With that being said, you may find that you can edit the general invoice layout by inheriting and modifying the following id: inherit_id="account.report_invoice_document" This covers much of the body of the invoice. In terms of models this will depend on the nature of the field you'd like to place there.
Hi Luke, Thanks for your detailed reply! The type of field I wish to add is a text field which will be limited to 7 characters, numbers only. Here's a specific use-case, if that helps: #1 In our workflow, every billable incident has a TICKET NUMBER associated with it. #2 When we bill, each line item is associated with a TICKET NUMBER #3 I want to add a custom field to allow us to enter the TICKET NUMBER that is associated with that line item that is being billed for. #4 This will output on the printed report invoice (I think I know how to do that) as well as be searchable/saved in the database for future reference. #5 The goal is to be able to correlate each line item with a specific Ticket # to allow us to reference more details if needed regarding any invoice line item. Hope this makes sense. Thanks again for the help!
