Roberto,

Could you describe in some more detail why you would like to have this?

If I would raise an invoice/creditnote that spans multiple PO’s then I would list the PO/POLine reference on each invoice line and not on the header level. (I would not even populate that in the header, even in very simple cases)

And my assumption is that each InvoiceLine can only point to one POLine. If I have multiple PO Line from different orders that I would like to invoice then I would still separate them on invoice level. It could be that pricing/discounts can be different between those lines even if the item is the same.

Even if you would have multiple PO references at header level, then the recipient would not know which order a specific line relates to. So they will have difficulty processing the invoice  and would still need to find the lower level (POLine/InvoiceLine) reference for matchings purposes in their accounts payable system.

But maybe you have a different use-case that I am not thinking about.
