Make a Payment Method only visible in admin

Hi, I'd like to make the Purchase Order payment method only visible in admin order creations and not in the front end checkout process. Could I please have some guidance as to what needs amending for me to be able to achieve this. Thanks

Dear Sana,

If you want show Purchase Order payment method only backend, you just need to declare 

"protected $_canUseCheckout              = false;" in the 

file: app\code\core\Mage\Payment\Model\Method\Purchaseorder.php so Purchase Order cannot work on frontend. 

And vice versa you can declare "protected $_canUseInternal   = false;" in class Mage_Payment_Model_Method_Purchaseorder so that Purchase Order cannot work in backend. If you still need help regarding Magento Development feel free to contact me.

Hope you success.
