Converting Purchase requisition to Purchase order

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by CU13032032-0 253

Hi, when we create a Purchase requisition and add a line for the item the requester wants to buy, the address is either the LE address or the site address. Once approved it converts to a Purchase order. Once the Purchase order is received at the warehouse, how will the warehouse worker know who requested it and where should it be delivered? Is there a field that holds this data on Purchase order?

    Hi,

    to answer the first question: the requester is taken from the Purchase Requisition and brought to the Purchase order in the header field “Requester”.

    As for the second question, I do not get the point: the warehouse worker will use the information about the site and warehouse from the PO line in order to store the goods delivered in the right place (site-warehouse-location) defined in the PR or PO line. The address is mainly to tell the vendor where to deliver the goods. But maybe are you referring to a specific procedure/form the warehouse worker use? In case please let me know.

    Hi @CU13032032-0 ,

     

    If you are only looking for warehouse-level information for example, for a non-WHS-enabled item, which warehouse the item should be delivered to and who requested it, then Paolo’s answer addresses your question.

    However, if you are looking for the specific warehouse location where the item should be placed, which applies to a WHS-enabled item, then you need to look at the Location Directive and the Warehouse Work. These determine the specific put-away location and provide the instructions for where the item should be moved within the warehouse.

    In other words, non-WHS items are generally managed at the warehouse level, whereas WHS-enabled items use warehouse processes such as Location Directives and Warehouse Work to determine the specific location within the warehouse.

    Good day,

    Can you share a bit more information about the comment “Where it should be delivered”? Do you mean the warehouse or warehouse location?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards,

    In standard D365 Supply Chain Management, I would separate the requester from the delivery location.

    The requester is captured on the Purchase Requisition and is used as part of the requisition/approval process. Once the requisition is approved, the PR lines can be used to generate the Purchase Order.

    For the physical destination, the PR/PO has Delivery address information at line level, and the PO also uses the Site/Warehouse to determine where the goods should be delivered.

    Therefore, I would check the resulting PO under Header/Lines and Line details to confirm the Site, Warehouse and Delivery address.

    If the business requirement is for the warehouse worker to see the individual requester directly on the PO/warehouse document, I would first check whether the requester information is exposed on the standard PO/report being used. If it isn't, that would be more of a form/report/customization requirement rather than a missing PO delivery field.

    My memory is rusty…. have you tried setting the Attention information on the requisition line (Address tab). This may appear on the Purchase order.

    You can see the purchase requisition details on the purchase order line, by this the warehouse worker know who requested it.
