Customize the Invoice Form to add a custom field sourced from Customer Name and be able to include it on the printed Invoice Form

As it stands now, NetSuite does not have a standard way to include the Customer Name on the printed Invoice Form if users are entering different names under Addressee field in the Bill To address section.  To achieve this, users must customize the Invoice Form to add a custom field sourced from Customer field and set it to print on the Invoice Form.

Here are the detailed steps users can follow:

1. Navigate to Customization > Lists, Records & Fields Transaction Body Fields > New (Administrator).

2. Set the following for the new Custom Transaction Body Field.

-Enter a Label (i.e. Customer Name)

-Type = Free-Form Text

-Applies To = Sale

-Display tab > Subtab = Main

-Sourcing & Filtering tab: Source List = Customer | Source From = Company Name

3. Click Save & Apply to Forms button > mark the Show and Print checkboxes for the Custom Invoice Forms where user wants to apply the field > click Save.

The user can then navigate to  Customization > Forms > Transaction Forms, to edit the Custom Invoice Form(s).  In the Printing Fields tab > Body subtab, he can drag and drop the custom field in accordance with his preferred location.
