It's really annoying that the customer dropdown shows a list of stupid numbers and I presume this is because of the auto numbering.. Is there a way to "customize" the customer dropdown to show the names instead without having to turn off auto number generating? OR is it possible to have a better search? For example, if there is a customer called "Purple Corner Cafe" and you start typing Purple, the customer shows up but if you start typing "Corner" or "Cafe", the customer does not appear. This does work on the global search bar but not the customer dropdown. So frustrating...

You can use a wildcard character “%” before any key word and it will be found. so %Corner
or %Cafe

Is this a Suitelet? But Yes, you should be able to create a custom field with Customer Names instead of ID numbers. Also, I always the
%
wildcard when searching in dropdowns.

@Michael McNamara Thanks for the tip on the %. How did I not know that? LOL. @Josh Godfrey No, not a suitelet. Native Customer drop down on creating an invoice. I don't want to go the custom field route. Thanks for your help.
