With Commerce Server 2007, you can use the TrackingNumber property for this
purpose. If you set it on the Basket before a SaveAsOrder call, it is copied
over to the PO. If not set then a new trackingNumber is
assigned to the PO.
From the CS 2007 docs:
This value is a string to allow use of non-numeric, unique tracking numbers
assigned by a shipping company to be applied to an order. It is present in t
he Basket, OrderTemplate, and PurchaseOrder classes so
that it can be set as part of pre-checkout processing of a basket if a track
ing number is known prior to conversion of a basket to a placed purchase ord
er. This property value defaults to null at creation of a
basket or order template; if it is still null when a basket is converted to
a purchase order (using SaveAsOrder), a new, unique 64-bit integer value wil
l be generated, converted to a string, and placed in this
property, so that the uniqueness characteristics of this field are upheld wh
en saving the purchase order.

We have created a new field called "order number" and it becomes a standard
property that doesn't get overwritten.
I'd have to look at the code but if you need more help...
