Add Purchase Order reference field to orders

[Tina1809]

We don't currently have the financial ability to upgrade to Plus. We need for our customers to be able to enter their Purchase Order number in to their orders, and for that order reference to be searchable. We had this in Neto/Maropost and that software was old. 

Is this possible to do or is there an app that would do this?

Hi Tina,

To collect additional information, you'll either need to use line-item properties or cart-attributes. Line item properties are used for collecting information on the product level, while cart attributes are used for collection information from your customers on the cart page.

As for it to be searchable, I have no idea how to do that.

If you're looking for help in collecting line-item properties or cart-attributes in your store, I'd be happy to help you for $20. Let me know if you're interested and if you have any questions, feel free to ask! 🙂
