There does not seem to be any tab called "Deliveries & Invoices" in the standard Purchase Order form. 

Enable Developer mode, open the form, click on the ​Developer Tools button  (bug) on the top right, select "Edit View: Form" and look through the underlying xml to find out the correct name of the tab. 

If you do not find the tab in the main xml (Architecture), go through the views in the "Inherited Views" tab to see if there is another view that is extending the functionality of the form and adding the tab to the main form.
