Dear Admin,  
when we place a sales order it has shown in sales order but can its number be shown on sales invoices when we prepare any invoice.  
Like we can select orders which are open in the same way as we select invoices and also a column ahead in sales order that contains information that it has been invoiced of not.  
If there is any option like that, please let me know  
Thanks

If you use the Copy to… button to create a sales invoice from a sales order, the number will transfer (if there is one–they are optional). Otherwise, you can enter a sales order number manually when creating a sales invoice.

As for status, the same question was recently asked about purchase orders. Same procedure is recommended. It was also asked just 8 days ago about sales orders.

I know you can create an invoice by “copy to…” but I find I am constantly going back and forth as I create a number of sales quotes which get accepted and so need to be converted to invoices. Once copied I have to then go back, find the quote and delete it (if I remember!). It would be lovely to have a “convert to…” option as well as a “copy to…” option so that the original quote/order is removed. …
