Bills - Purchase order number field on bill

A field/box to enter the purchase order number when entering bills

We use a separate system for creating POs and would like to record our PO number in a dedicated field when entering the corresponding bill(s)

    This is completely bizarre that a PO field is not available in Bills, you have invoice and reference in Invoices, why can you not provide the same fields in Bills!! Please address this issus as a matter of urgency. Thank you

    Please add a PO reference field within the invoice. The current make shift system does not work!!

    Wehave just started using POs and are REALLY disappointed that we cannot automatically link them into the bills when they arrive.

    This should be a no brainer. We currently add the supplier invoice number to the reference field, but leave the PO number in there too. This at least means that the search (when it works) can find the invoice by PO most of the time.

    It would be very helpful to have a specific purchase order field on both invoices and bills

    It's a pretty fundamental thing to be able to record the purchase order number when processing purchase invoices. I actually struggle to believe Xero still haven't done this.

    There is only a reference field on bills, which we need to use for the suppliers invoice number, where are we supposed to put our order number so we can easily search for bills at a later date. You can put your order number in the reference field alongside the bill number, but if someone spells something slightly wrong and then it's duplicated the system won't pick it up. Can't see how hard it is to add another field.

    This field would help match our bills received to our sales system which generates our POs
