Why PO Should Stay Off the Storefront

Native Magento PO payment is easy to expose to the wrong audience:

• Storefront clutter — retail customers see PO and create unpaid noise
• Missing PO metadata — company name / reference fields not captured consistently
• Sales-rep workflows — phone/email orders need backend PO without frontend risk

What This Extension Solves

The Purchase Order Admin Only extension offers PO terms exclusively for sales reps placing backend orders.

• Enable PO for admin orders while hiding it from storefront checkout
• Collect PO numbers, company names, and reference fields
• Cleaner B2B phone-order workflow
• Works alongside standard Magento payment methods online

Key Features

• Admin-only Purchase Order payment method
• PO metadata capture
• Simple Magento admin configuration
• Magento 2.4.x compatible

System Requirements

• Magento 2.4.x + PHP 8.1–8.3
• Sales roles that create admin orders
