I think some table ids are specifically exposed. Note that there is quite a bit of discussion about having a sequential numbering system implemented that meets audit standards and if that is something you would put towards it would be worth indicating it as an organization is currently considering putting up some money to help implement this amongst other things (part payments) but more community contribution would probably influence them

RJB My suggestion was backing up Eileen's ie she told you what to use, I told you where to put it in case that wasn't obvious. Sorry for not making that clearer

Not at all, Pete - thanks for your help! Much appreciated. I think I'll do my very best to persuade everyone to settle for the contribution ID - it's going to be a much easier solution.

Thanks again and karma clicks to both of you,

RJB

Hey, i solved this issue by populating the field with a default with a 32 char invoice id using  a snippet from an older post http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,1735.msg7541.html#msg7541 in a similar vein.  This works for our use case.
in hook_buildForm():
  // if the offline form's invoice id field is there
  if ($formName == 'CRM_Contribute_Form_Contribution' && $form->elementExists('invoice_id')) {
    // generate and set an invoiceID for this transaction                                                               
    $invoiceID = $form->getElementValue( 'invoice_id' );
    if ( ! $invoiceID ) {
      $invoiceID = md5(uniqid(rand(), true));
    }       
    $defaults['invoice_id'] = $invoiceID;
    $form->setDefaults($defaults);
  }

Excuse me, but... in wich file did you add this code to pre-populate the field?

Thank you
