    if the order is coming from a quote, I don't think you could manually change it. BC seems to need it to maintain the link between those two.

    Thanks Ben and Mohamed. 
     
    But I am already done with manual nos. set up. We want to daily use this manual to create/edit PO number function (P.S. The New PO is created by Purchase Quote (PQ) approved function through workflow: Process >make order (Convert the purchase quote to a purchase order)). Therefore, I hope to solve this problem, many thanks.
     

    The below function is closed through the PQ approval workflow. We can't edit the PO number.

    As stated below, you have to have the allow Manual Numbers checked.  Then you need to personalize/configure the Purchase Order No. field onto your page.  If you only do this occasionally, I suggest leaving it under the Show More option to avoid mistakes.  Once you have done these two things you should be able to select the No. field and make your change.

    Hi,
     
    In No. Series you must set Manual Nos. to true.
