In the settings for invoices I have written my bank details in the footer but when creating an invoice the IBAN NO does not show all numbers but **** **** **** instead. I have to add them manually on every invoice. Anything I can do?

Hi, @Lindos.
This is a security feature that will obscure any plain-text credit card data by making a portion of these asterisks. As frustrating as this can be, it's an important security feature, and it affects you because IBAN look exactly like credit card numbers.
To get around this, you're going to have to tweak the number to show it isn't a credit card.
You will have to break up the digits with periods so that it will not pass the validity check and will be allowed. Simply note to your customers to ignore the periods.
We have to do this to comply with security standards for payment services, and because invoices are considered to be public documents.
