Hi,

I'm using D365 Purchase requisition.

To test the Suggest vendor functionality in Procurement, I setup the approved vendor in Procurement categories.

I created purchase requisition and enter non-catalog item.

I thought when clicking the Suggest vendor in purchase requisition line, the system will display the vendors that I setup in procurement categories but there is none.

What is the use of Suggest vendor in purchase requisition line?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hi Marypeace,

In my view, the suggest vendor is a field that requester fill in to tell approver to choose the vendor.(although the requester can select the vendor when the line is not item)

The approved vendor in procurement category is used with the purchase policies.

Hi Marypeace,

This is an example:

1. Set up the policy.

2.Set up the approved vendor for the cleaning category.

3.Create a PR to test. Only the approved vendor can be selected.
