    We appreciate users wanting more flexibility in the data they show on invoices. At present our teams are re-developing some of the base features across Sales with particular focus on new invoicing.


    At this time, there are no plans for developing a fields for a PO number in invoicing. Focus is on existing features in invoicing.


    It's good to get a renewed understanding of interest here on Product Ideas, and if there's any news we will update on this here.


    In the meantime, there is a way the custom template can be edited to rename the Reference field as a 'Purchase Order Number' field - see more in the discussion here.

    Kelly that's all well and good , but some of my customers want their job number and a PO number. I am trialling Quickbooks with a view to switching. I can't keep adding things manually .

    Its unbelievable that only one field is considered acceptable! all big companies need PO or other reference.
    We already use the Reference field. Needing to put them into the description is less than ideal -its not searchable and doesnt look great. What a shame, Im new to xero and this is just poor.
