I would like to be able to add a reference number to my invoices. Currently I have to edit the template and add a text box and type in reference numbers for each invoice. Way too much work.

Just add a template called "Reference", and let the user specify reference number/ID in the lower edit box of the invoice viewer.

    What do you use this reference number for? I'm assuming it's different than the Invoice #, but I'm just trying to get a better feel of what you're trying to accomplish.

    Reference number / order number.

    If you make an order, you get a reference number or an order number that you can refer to when calling customer support. When you get an invoice from that company, it will contain that order number (and an invoice number), so you know exactly what order the invoice is for. I know of many companies that want to have order numbers and invoice numbers separate (perhaps order numbers increase every time someone makes an order, and invoice numbers increase only when they actually send out invoices, making them different).

    When a company hires me for a job, they want to be able to connect my invoice to an order they made. This will be a reference number/ID of their choosing. This is what I want to be able to put into my invoices.
