Add a purchase order (PO) number to pending or unpaid invoices

❗️ Important
From September 1, 2026, this process is no longer available for customers affected by the French e-invoicing reform. Instead, you must send your purchase order number to Brevo by creating a ticket directly from your account before the invoice is issued for it to appear on the invoice. To learn more, check our dedicated article Update your billing information for mandatory e-invoicing (France).

Adding a purchase order (PO) number to invoices can help improve financial traceability. It makes it easier to organize your transactions and track your pending and unpaid invoices.

Good to know

  • You can only add a purchase order number to pending or unpaid invoices. This cannot be done for voided, adjusted, or paid invoices.
