Getting value from custom checkout billing field in WooCommerce

I added a field at the checkout following the woocommerce documentation this way:

/*Add document ID to checkout form*/
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'ebani_cedula_checkout_field' );

// Our hooked in function - $fields is passed via the filter!
function ebani_cedula_checkout_field( $fields ) {
    $fields['billing']['cedula'] = array(
        'label'     => __('Cédula de ciudadanía', 'woocommerce'),
        'placeholder'   => _x('Cédula', 'placeholder', 'woocommerce'),
        'required'  => true,
        'class'     => array('form-row-last'),
        'clear'     => true,
        'priority' => 15
    );

     return $fields;
}

Then I want to show it on the admin order edit page this way:

/**
 * Display field value on the order edit page
 */
 add_action( 'woocommerce_admin_order_data_after_billing_address', 'cedula_checkout_field_display_admin_order_meta', 10, 1 );
    
 function cedula_checkout_field_display_admin_order_meta($order){
        echo '<p><strong>'.__('Cédula').':</strong> ' . get_post_meta( $order->get_id(), '_cedula', true ) . '</p>';
 }

When I go to the order edit page I get an empty value for _cedula I don't know why, I'm just following the documentation, but it is not working, how can I get the data stored in the custom checkout field?

If you want this custom billing field to be saved when order is placed, it's better to use the action hook woocommerce_billing_fields instead of woocommerce_checkout_fields like:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_billing_fields' , 'ebani_cedula_checkout_field' );
function ebani_cedula_checkout_field( $fields ) {
    $fields['billing_cedula'] = array(
        'label'       => __('Cédula de ciudadanía', 'woocommerce'),
        'placeholder' => _x('Cédula', 'placeholder', 'woocommerce'),
        'required'    => true,
        'class'       => array('form-row-last'),
        'clear'       => true,
        'priority'    => 15
    );
    return $fields;
}

add_action( 'woocommerce_admin_order_data_after_billing_address', 'cedula_checkout_field_display_admin_order_meta', 10, 1 );
function cedula_checkout_field_display_admin_order_meta($order){
    if( $value = $order->get_meta('_billing_cedula') )
        echo '<p><strong>'.__('Cédula').':</strong> ' . $value . '</p>';
}

Now your custom checkout billing field is saved.
