I have created one Purchase Order to acquire 3 quantity of a fixed assets. I am using procurement category to do this. When I create product receipt for this purchase order and check in Fixed Asset module to confirm creation of Fixed asset, I found that instead of creating 3 lines with separate fixed asset number it created only one line for fixed asset.

Which is not according to what I was expecting.

Can anyne explain why it happened in this way and what is wrong I have done.

Hi Sadiq,

Did you create one line with quantity 3 or three lines on the PO?

Hi Sadiq,

In D365 Finance and Operation, if you want to create/acquire 03 different Assets through PO then you have to create 03 separate lines with same procurement category. This is how it works.

Hope it helps. Good Luck.

Hi Sadiq,

This is an expected behavior of D365, if you create one line in PO with 3 QTY it will create only one FA.

Now you have two options in case you want three assets:

1. Create 3 lines in PO and acquire

2. Create only one line and then through "Fixed asset Split" feature split asset in to three fixed asset

Hi Sadiq,

There is a 1:1 relationship between your fixed asset and a PO line.

If you need to create 3 fixed assets then you need 3 PO lines.

Best regards,

Hi Sadiq,

I really like to give some help on this support request, hence please could you let me know why you need that business scenario? In fact, I think it's a reasonable scenario to have multiple fixed assets in one line. As the mentioned with Saurabh Bharati, if you want to create one line in PO with 3 or more quantity, you can create one line and then through 'Fixed asset Split' feature split asset in to 3 or more fixed assets only you want.

Regards,

Elsa

Hello Elsa Guo ,
Please consider; can be required 10 pcs notebook pc. You can create one line purchase order with 10 pcs.
the notebooks can be deliver different times, or not. you dont have to manage this situation. Each notebooks should be different fixed asset . We use purchase requsition for purchase. The d365 fo system has no purch line split standart option.

in this situations manual purch line split is not applicable, fixed asset split is not applicable aswell. Consider, The fixed assets bought different times.
thanks..
