Thank you Derek for the reply that was my initial approach, to use one of the address fields, but it's only for storage, it can not be retrieved for use in the invoice eg. If there is a way and I missed it, I would really appreciate a pointer :)
Or maybe it would be better to just add a function in engine/business-core.scm to just return address fields individually (in addition to the one that returns the whole Address structure)?

The main reason is that the fields aren't simply extensible. However you could easily re-use one of the existing fields for the VAT ID, like the 4th row of the address, or perhaps the website field. > Kind regards > Michalis -derek -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: [1]http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH warl...@mit.edu PGP key available References 1. http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
