To display and save custom meta data added to cart in cart, checkout and orders when using:

WC()->cart->add_to_cart( $product_id ,1,  0,array(), array('add_size' => array('PR CODE'=>'1.0') );

You will use the following code:

// Display custom cart item meta data (in cart and checkout)
add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_item_data', 'display_cart_item_custom_meta_data', 10, 2 );
function display_cart_item_custom_meta_data( $item_data, $cart_item ) {
    $meta_key = 'PR CODE';
    if ( isset($cart_item['add_size']) && isset($cart_item['add_size'][$meta_key]) ) {
        $item_data[] = array(
            'key'       => $meta_key,
            'value'     => $cart_item['add_size'][$meta_key],
        );
    }
    return $item_data;
}

// Save cart item custom meta as order item meta data and display it everywhere on orders and email notifications.
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order_line_item', 'save_cart_item_custom_meta_as_order_item_meta', 10, 4 );
function save_cart_item_custom_meta_as_order_item_meta( $item, $cart_item_key, $values, $order ) {
    $meta_key = 'PR CODE';
    if ( isset($values['add_size']) && isset($values['add_size'][$meta_key]) ) {
        $item->update_meta_data( $meta_key, $values['add_size'][$meta_key] );
    }
}

Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
