Re: [Ledger-smb-users] Company renaming itself

[Brian Wolf]

If regenerating old invoices is the primary concern, how about this: - add a table that keeps history of company names (name, date changed, ......) - modify the module that generates invoices to pull the company name from the new table according to where the invoice create date falls in terms of dates.

How should I handle this with LedgerSMB? So far, I've come up with two approaches: 1. Rename the existing company However, this would cause (regenerated) older invoices to appear under the new name -- hence loosing history. 2. Create a new company with the new name However, this breaks credit management: short term I have to manage the credit line spread across two companies AND it breaks the line of history where I can find all old invoices under the same company. Any other ideas? Bye, Erik. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
