Standardize PO numbers across modules

When creating a PO in Vista, the PO number will vary depending on which module I'm in. I need a way to standardize the format. For example, when creating a PO from within PM Purchase Orders, the PO number will be job number, decimal, 3 digit sequential number, so the 1st PO on job 2999 would be 2999.001. But if I create a PO in SM Work Order, the PO# will be a sequential number counting up. Why can't SM WO use the same format?

    I believe adding the Work Order to the PO number as a System Parameter in SM makes a lot of sense.
