Hey there, @rollinghillstech.

 

Let me provide answers to your queries in QuickBooks.

 

Are you trying to add a custom display for PO numbers in your invoices? 

If so, this option is unavailable for QuickBooks Online Simple Start. Although, you can still add this info in the Message on invoice field. This way, it would still show up in your invoice once printed. 

Here's how:

  1. Click the +New icon and select Invoice.
  2. Enter the details of your transaction.
  3. Add the purchase order number in the Message on invoice field.
  4. Select Save and close.

    Thank you!

    I was trying to have a custom field but it looked like that was not possible with my plan. 

    I started writing it in the message field as you suggested.

    Thank you for confirming this for me.

    The best way is to go to Custom Fields and add a printable PO option for your sales.

     

    Hit the Icon --> Lists --> Custom Fields.

     

    Once you are in Custom Fields, you will hit the Add Field and name it Purchase Order or PO.  Make sure to click on the All Sales Forms and choose the Print On Form option.

     

    Now a PO # option will show up on all your invoices.
