    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.

    we need to let staff know to enter a valid purchase order number before emailing a sales invoice, so a tick on the customer that makes a PO compulsory would be a good idea, it's basic in other accounting software. With einvoicing being mandated in New Zealand by January 27 it's imperative that staff can not send out an invoice without the correct information to be paid.
