Custom fields can be added to the Invoice LU, built on INVOICE_TAB, but the same doesn't seem possible on the related Project Invoices screen, even though its underlying view also pulls its rowkey through from that same INVOICE_TAB. Why can't the Project Invoices LU be extended with custom fields the same way?

Answer

The Project Invoices Logical Unit is specifically listed among the framework's Excluded Logical Units, which blocks custom-field extension on it regardless of how closely its underlying view relates to the extendable Invoice LU's own table. The specific R&D rationale for excluding this particular LU from custom-field support isn't publicly documented, so if there's a genuine business need for a custom field there, the practical path is to raise a support case asking IFS R&D directly for clarification or reconsideration, rather than assuming it can be worked around through configuration alone.
