Delivery Address Name does not change when Delivery Address is Changed on Sales Order

Posted on by 1,632

This may be how AX works, but it doesn't seem right.  When creating a Sales Order, the default delivery address is populated for the customer.  You can then change the address by using the drop down list to the side of the "Delivery Address".  This will update the Address and "Delivery Address" fields.  But the "Name" is not updated, which is a problem because this is the field that is used on the reports (Pick, pack, and invoice) as the delivery name.  I know that I could modify the reports to point to the drop down field, but that seems wrong and I wouldn't think that AX would be designed to take from the wrong field on all forms.  Plus, someone else must have noticed this, but I can't seem to find any record of anyone else seeing this issue.

Here are some screen shots:

New Sales Order with default Delivery Address:

Then I change the Delivery address using the drop down and selecting an existing address:

The "Delivery Address" and "Address" change but the "Name" does not.  Again, the issue with this is that the "Name" is what shows up on the Packing Slip which causes confusion for the customer and they think they need to forward the shipment to the other facility/Address.

Any help would be appreciated, even if you tell me that this is how it is supposed to work, so that I know that I need to modify all the reports to pull the delivery address name from somewhere else.

Note:  Using Dynamics AX 2012 R3

    Apparently my screenshots that I entered didn't post.  Here they are again:

    I tried this on AX 2012 R3 CU8 CTP build - the Delivery name is also updated when you select a different address.

    Try to see if there were hotfixes released for this on LCS search

    You are correct, I found the following Hotfix to correct the issue.  I have not applied it yet to verify that it fixed the issue but the description is my issue exactly.  Thanks!

    Here is the Hotfix for anyone else that may have this issue:
