We have built a custom bolt on using IPG to allow credit people from our
corporate site to access data at the order line level.  This was done by
creating an extension (supplemental) file that holds data at the order line
level and is one for one with the JBA order lines file, OEP55.  What you are
describing could possibly be handled in customer text, which can be made
available at the time the order is entered.  This would be much less of a
mod as JBA had the functionality to do this in V2, but removed in in V3, so
the code is pretty much in place.  The credit people would put their
information in as customer internal text, for example, and then this could
be made visible during order entry.  In our V2 implementation the customer
text automatically comes into the order as order header external text.  V3
would allow both internal and external customer text.

Please let me know if you would like additional details.
