Combining multiple shipments on one invoice

Hoping someone can guide me here. In the help documents for Business Central, it states that there is a "combine shipments" field on the shipping tab of the customer card that would allow you to combine multiple shipments in one invoice for a customer.

I don't seem to have that field on my demo site, nor my customer site.

Did it get moved? Or is this something that is allowed for every customer and no setup is needed?

Hi

I have checked the Page 21 - "Customer Card" and that field is tagged with ApplicationArea = #Advanced so currently this will not be visible on the Page. Currently we need to create a Page Extension and change the ApplicationArea to either All or #Basic,#Suite and then it will be available for you to use it. Hope this field would be made available in the next few releases.

More Information is available in the below link, Details under section Adding Advanced application area to the Essentials and Premium experiences using an extension.

two questions please :

1) we can combine two shipments manually, by going to Sales Invoice> get Shipment Line,

but when going to Combine Shipment to post Invoices in bulk, it says nothing to post, Customer Card > Shipping>Combine Shipment has been checked.

2) Can original PO numbers be displayed on the Sales Invoice?

Didn't answer my two questions :

but when going to Combine Shipment to post Invoices in bulk, it says nothing to post, Customer Card > Shipping>Combine Shipment has been checked.

2) Can original PO numbers be displayed on the Sales Invoice?

Hi, for question 1, did you check Combine Shipment after creating orders?

You can use Page Inspectionto confirm whether the Combine Shipment of the order is True. If it is False, it means that the Combine Shipment is checked after you create the order.

For question 2, That's possible, but I think the need for customization.

Hope this also helps.

Thanks.

Hi, This doesn't seem to be a problem. Seems odd.
Also, are these orders all in the same currency?

The following is a record of my test, I hope it can give you some hints.
