My invoice filename gets nicely rendered after putting ${ o.internal_number + o.partner_id | replace("res.partner","-") | replace("(","") | replace(")","") | replace(",","") }_Invoice into the 'Download filename' field under Actions / Reports / Invoices

Great work!

Excellent idea, but still have a problem when I declare the "download_filename" in the XML action for report, I get an error telling me that attribute does not exist. What should I do? I don´t want to manually set it from Odoo UI. I tried to inherit from report_custom_filename.ir.actions.report.xml, but I think I am doing something wrong. Could we get some example please? Thanks in advance!

Nice work! Very useful module.
