New Invoicing - Invoice Reference Field; Allow Formatting
Please change the Type of the Invoice Reference field on New Invoicing to Allow for extended text formatting capabilities. Make it the same data type as the Summary Field on Quotes or the Description Field on Invoice Line items. So that the invoice reference field allows and saves Carriage Returns and Tab characters.

Would be highly beneficial to update the Invoice Reference field in New Invoicing to support extended text formatting, similar to the Summary field on Quotes or the Description field on Invoice Line items, so users can include carriage returns and tab characters for clearer structure and better readability. Many businesses rely on detailed references that outline project phases, milestones, technical specifications, or compliance notes, and limiting this field to plain single-line text reduces clarity and professionalism in documentation. Allowing multi-line formatting would improve workflow efficiency, reduce the need for workarounds, and ensure invoice records remain organized and comprehensive, especially for technical or engineering services where structured references are essential, such as detailed welding specifications explained here: https://vsengineering.co/what-is-tungsten-inert-gas-welding/
