yes you can give 'name': 'Invoice ' + 'today date' in return from wizard to print report.

for example: this is function is call from print button in wizard.

def print_report(self,cr, uid, ids, context=None):
        if context is None:
           context = {}
        data = self.read(cr, uid, ids)[0]
        self_browse = self.browse(cr, uid, ids)
        
        datas = {
            'ids': [data.get('id')],
            'model': 'sale.order',
            'form': data
            }
        return {
            'type': 'ir.actions.report.xml',
            'report_name': 'custom.invvoice.report',
            'datas': datas,
            'name': 'Invoice ' + self_browse[0].start_date + ' To ' + self_browse[0].end_date  
            }

I think you can use this module

https://github.com/OCA/reporting-engine/tree/8.0/report_custom_filename

Kind regard, 

For Odoo 9+:

Go to configuration, reports, look for the report you want, then use the Printed Report Filename field which can contain python expressions. Two variables can be used inside: object which is the object being printed, and time which is python time module. So you can input "object.name" without the quotes.

No need for extra module or code.

Look for print_report_name

The same problem for me!

I really want to have the same functionality as for "save as attachment" for all of the print buttons! Drives me nuts to always download the document twice just for the right file name...

Any idea?!?

Here is our solution to customize the sale order report PDF name with the « print » buttons.

Hello,

I too faced the same problem of printing invoice pdf with Invoice number.pdf as its name.

I modified @Nikunj Nakum  answer and I got the result. Below given is the code

  #=================================================
  # Class             :    account_invoice (inherited)
  # Method          :    custom_invoice_print button
  # Description   :    This function prints the invoice and mark it as sent, so that
  #                            we can see more easily the next step of the workflow. 

  #                            Prints Invoice with invoice number as its name
  #================================================

  def custom_invoice_print(self, cr, uid, ids, context=None):
        self.write(cr, uid, ids, {'sent': True}, context=context)
        data = self.read(cr, uid, ids)[0]
        self_browse = self.browse(cr, uid, ids)
        datas = {
             'ids': ids,
             'model': 'account.invoice',
             'form': self.read(cr, uid, ids[0], context=context)
        }
        return {
            'type': 'ir.actions.report.xml',
            'report_name': 'account.invoice2',
            'datas': datas,
            'name': 'Invoice ' + self_browse[0].number  ,
            'nodestroy' : True
        }

Result:  Invoice INV14-09_018.pdf

In Existing Report Module after adding the below code able to generate Invoice Number in PDF File.

server\openerp\report\report_sxw.py in the create_single_pdf method.

    def create_single_pdf(self, cr, uid, ids, data, report_xml, context=None):
        if not context:
            context={}
        logo = None
        context = context.copy()
        title = report_xml.name
        rml = report_xml.report_rml_content
        model = context.get('active_model')
        record_id = context.get('active_id')    
        pool = pooler.get_pool(cr.dbname)
        invoice_obj = pool.get('account.invoice')
        type = report_xml.report_type
        if model == 'account.invoice' and record_id:
            invoice_val = invoice_obj.browse(cr, uid, record_id)     
            orderreference_type = invoice_val.reference or invoice_val.origin + report_xml.report_type
            type = orderreference_type.replace("pdf", ".pdf");        
        # if no rml file is found
        if not rml:
            return False
        rml_parser = self.parser(cr, uid, self.name2, context=context)
        objs = self.getObjects(cr, uid, ids, context)
        rml_parser.set_context(objs, data, ids, report_xml.report_type)
        processed_rml = etree.XML(rml)
        if report_xml.header:
            rml_parser._add_header(processed_rml, self.header)
        processed_rml = self.preprocess_rml(processed_rml,report_xml.report_type)
        if rml_parser.logo:
            logo = base64.decodestring(rml_parser.logo)
        create_doc = self.generators[report_xml.report_type]
        pdf = create_doc(etree.tostring(processed_rml),rml_parser.localcontext,logo,title.encode('utf8'))
        return pdf, type
        #return pdf, report_xml.report_type
      

Note: Core Report Module added extra code (Invoice Number in PDF File). But Better way to override  create_single_pdf method in a custom module.

I have also the same problem..
