Hi Acumatica Community,

We have a request from our UK users regarding mandatory EU legislation: two statements need to be added to the Commercial Invoice for two different customers. As far as I understand, these statements are not tied to the customer record nor to the customer location.

What would be the most elegant way to handle this in Acumatica? Would it be feasible to implement this by creating attributes, or is there a better approach?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

    One more follow-up correction: It is also related to the customer’s shipping method.

    Hi ​@aspindler,

    You could add an attribute/UDF to the customer record, then pull this into the printed form.  This allows for more flexibility if the statement needs to be updated or added to more customers.  

    Note - make sure to refresh your schema and refactor in report designer after creating a new UDF.  

    Alternatively, you could hard code the statement into report designer and update the Visible Expression.  The visible expression would look something like =[Customer.AcctCD]='C000001'.  You would create another textbox for the other statement.  This method isn’t as ideal because you have to update RD each time there is a change.
