    Hello,

    Is there a reason you want to do this without item tracking.

    Thanks.

    Franz,

    Adding to Marco's question... why would you need this per Sales Shipment? I can see reporting on total Item sold by Vendor. If you want to see the Item Ledger Entry line consumed by the Sales Shipment, you can drill into the Application Worksheet, off the Posted Sales Shipment and highlight the line, click Navigate/Applied Entries. Here you could see the Purchase Receipt and the Vendor.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    hi marco,

    yes, surely i know that item tracking is the typical way to solve that. but this is a ver special customer, with very special business, warehousing, etc. processes, who uses navision and in the near future BC very out of standard within an "interesting" system architecture. i already suggested to use item tracking, but that would come along many process changes in the warehouse, employee eduction and what ever. better to say, they do not really want to do process changes like that. fortunately that topic is not my (main) topic in that project, i do different things, but a second opinion is sometimes interesting.

    now i think setting Require Receive, Require Shipment on the used locations would be a simple change for them with nearly no impact. with that the item application entries are filled, connect ingoing with outgoing inventory movements.

    In the item post journal is a field i think its called source, which keeps the custormer or vendors of where the item was brought
