Project Task Customer Reference
Adds an Order Customer Reference field (customer_reference) to
project.task so that customer PO/requisition numbers are visible on
tasks, capturable via website webforms, and kept in sync with the linked
sale order.
Features:
- Task field:
customer_reference(Char, not copied on duplication) is added to the task form view and list view (hidden by default, toggleable via the optional-columns menu). - Auto-populated from sale order: when a task is created
automatically from a confirmed sale order (service lines with
service_tracking), the task inherits the SO'sclient_order_refas itscustomer_reference. - Propagation back to sale order: when
customer_referenceis set or updated on a task, it is written toclient_order_refon the linked sale order — but only if that field is currently empty, preventing unintended overwrites. - Website webform support: the field is whitelisted for the website
form builder so it appears in the field picker when configuring a
webform that creates
project.taskrecords.
