There should be a way to add additional info of order in PayPal payment info, currently it just adds Invoice Number. But if we could add custom info also then it will be better to manage things in PayPal.

Thanks for taking the time to submit this suggestion.
A single invoice in WHMCS can contain potentially hundreds of different services, and the field length in PayPal is limited to 127 characters: https://developer.paypal.com/api/orders/v2/#definition-purchase_unit
Presently WHMCS adds the Service ID the custom_id field, and the invoice ID in the description, which we feel is the best way to handle such as one-to-many relationship.
Happy to hear alternative suggestions which meet the technical specifications.
