Credit Note Print Format for Sales Invoice

[zuron7]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

• When a Debit Note is received from a Customer in India, a Credit Note needs to be generated and provided back to the customer for documentation.

This is a simple feature that can be implemented and am happy to implement it, but would be great to get an opinion from other folks before we start on it and the best implementation to be compliant with the laws.

Describe the solution you'd like

• An additional field is required to document that the Debit Note Number in the Sales Invoice Return/Credit Note as well as a print format to depict the same.
• A standard format would contain all the required parameters as required by GST Law specified on the official website: https://cbic-gst.gov.in/pdf/invoice-gst-rules17052017.pdf

Describe alternatives you've considered

Adding a Custom Field is the current solution, but since this is a nationwide requirement, would be better to add it to the India-Compliance Application

This is a good to have.

I just have one conflict.

• each field added to sales invoice is increasing the row size and there are mariadb restrictions which many sites have surpassed (because of too many custom fields).

Suggestion:

• You can start by adding fields similar to that in Purchase Invoice Bill Number. Make sure they are conditionally visible. This is best added in ERPNext as this is a common business process across the globe. It's just some may prefer not to maintain this record.
• Once this is accepted you can cover this as a part of print format too. I guess references section would be a good place for this. You can display the same conditionally in print format if available. This can be contributed in India Compliance App.
