France: Order Reference

Order Reference (`Invoice/OrderReference`)	0..1	A group containing elements that reference to a Sales or Purchase Order with which this Invoice is associated.
Purchase Order Reference (`Invoice/OrderReference/ID`)	1..1	The ID for the purchase order, usually issued by the Buyer.
Sales Order Reference (`Invoice/OrderReference/SalesOrderID`)	0..1	The sales order ID, usually issued by the Supplier.
Purchase Order Date (`OrderReference/IssueDate`)	0..1	The issue date of the referenced order.
