Retaining an invoice number after correction

Currently, when we use the ‘Correct Invoice’ action, it creates a new invoice with a new reference number. Is it possible to retain the reference number from the corrected invoice?

Dear @reneed,

Acumatica creates a completely new invoice with a new number, but the new invoice is linked to the original order:

If your goal is to have the same invoice number printed on your invoice, you could simply modify the report to use the ARInvoice.OrigRefNbr when it is available, or the default ARInvoice.RefNbr field when it is an original invoice. This can be done from the report designer. I would also suggest adding some sort of  “modified” mention next to the number when reprinting this way.

Thank you Gabriel! I will try modifying the report as suggested.
