print purchase order number on invoice

Hi there, Alicia. To ensure the Purchase Order (PO) number appears on the printed invoice, we can enable the Print on form option in the Custom Fields settings.

 

Here's a visual reference for guidance.

 

If you haven't had a field for the PO number, follow these steps:

 

  1. Head to the Gear icon, then select Custom Fields.
  2. Click the Add field option and select Transaction.
  3. Type PO Number in the Name box, then choose Number on the Data Type dropdown.
  4. Tick Invoice, then toggle Print on form.
  5. Hit Save.

 

If you're talking about invoices as bills, we can use the create a custom field. However, the details won't appear on the printed document, as there's no option to print them on the form. Please see the attached screenshot for visual reference. 

 

While the option for the PO number to appear on printed bills is currently unavailable, we can submit a feature request to our product engineers for future implementation.

 

Here's how you can do it:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Feedback
  2. Enter your ideas in the box provided, then submit it.


For now, you can enter the information in the
Memo field to have it appear on the printed form.

The OP asked about the Purchase Order number, not a custom field.

I think what  @ShyMae  is trying to say without saying it is, "You can't."
