Customer Number/Code needed

[pablo]

I am trying to use djangoledger for a local (south american) implementation. It's been going great so far.

I have a quick question though:

By browsing the code I realized there is no way to assign a custom CODE (from the UI) for a customer (only an autogenerated sequential customer number is used for identification within an entity.

What would you guys suggest I do? Extend the customer model to add such field? Or just make use the "customer_number" field with the possibility of setting this unique number from the UI?

Is it something the project is willing to take if I make a PR?

Hello @pablo. In order to create your own customer number you can override def generate_customer_number(self, commit: bool = False) in the CustomerModel by creating a proxy model. The alternative is to create a PR adding custom optional customer number. In other to be consistent, the code would need to implement the same for the VendorModel as I can see a similar need for it.

I can see a use case for this functionality if you are trying to import a customer/vendor base from another system. PR welcome if you are willing to work on it.

Thanks
