Hi I'm very new on here. I Love and Use KMyMoney as my Quaterly accounting tool of choice. recently My mother who runs a firm told me that soon her enterprise Accounting system were gonna store all invoices in the cloud and then an idea dawned on me. What If KMyMoney had a feature that could take a digital invoice, add the invoice number to the Number table in KMyMoney And Send That invoice to a cloud using the folder of the payee and name by invoice number for easy management of and Confirmation of the entry by invoice. I' m ofc most likely out of my league of expertise to actually program the plugin. but it's something I'm looking into. I'd like to hear what you think of my idea.

It has already been requested and discussed more than once. I believe everyone agrees it is a good idea, but unfortunately, it is not near the top of priorities for the scarce developer time available. In the short term, you can simply save the URL to the invoice in the memo field. It is not likely KMM will ever store just the invoice number, as users may have their relevant invoices (or other documents) stored in a variety of other systems. For reference, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274021 and https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399094. There is also an open MR at https://invent.kde.org/office/kmymoney/ ... quests/149.

Damn, I thought I'd have solved two problems. one being that If I wanted to reconcile the entry I could do it manually like I do Now or I could use The invoice number on the invoice to reconcile the record while keeping a copy of the original invoice in the cloud or on-prem to go completely paperless. well it was a thought that has already been discussed So I shall lay it to rest.
