The new feature of Purchase Orders (PO) is great. However, once the PO is converted to a Purchase, there is no record or field to say which PO was converted to make the Purchase. The option to carry over the PO number to the Purchase (as a field or comment) would be extremely useful. This means that you can trace the original PO using the search function. Otherwise all record of the original PO is deleted on conversion, (yes I know this can be turned off). For audit and tracing purposes this would be very useful to do this.

Why doesn't the Purchase Order numbering just use the next available
Purchase number? That way we'd be able to track the order from the
start, through the supplier right to payment all using the same
reference number.
