Known results on the generalized Davenport constant relating zero-sum sequences over a finite abelian group are extended for the generalized Noether number relating rings of polynomial invariants of an arbitrary finite group. An improved general upper degree bound for polynomial invariants of a non-cyclic finite group that cut out the zero vector is given.
