AX2012: Customer order/confirmation from different and specific stock locations

Hi all

I am trying my luck here:

We have a biscuit production mixture of A's (produced) and B's (sorted). These are combined onto the same pallet on the warehouse and the customer doesn't know which they get. Historically that has been OK.

Now we have a customer that only wants A's (produced), but our remaining customers continious to be OK with either A or B.

I get we have to split our warehouse from A & B's to handle the first customer, but my questions is:

How we do handle the customer order confirmation that only wants the A's,
And also handle the other customers that want either or?

Today A & B have the same part number, so a quick fix would be to create a new part number for the A's & B's. However that is not very well suited for our operations given the complexity.

Could you add something on the master data, or somehow add in the order from the customer that IF(customer=OnlyA's -> look at storage location A), OR IF(customer=AnyOther -> look at storage location A or B).

I hope you get the challenge..

Thanks
