    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.

    The current Reference field when invoicing is visible by both Customer and Company and often has to be used for a PO number. As a company that has multiple projects going on under one Customer it is always difficult to sift through invoices looking for those relating to a specific project as I can only lable this in the invoice line item.

    Having a second "reference" option which is only for internal use and does not display for the customer would allow us to better label invoices for different projects and make searches much more efficient.
