Customer Purchase Order Number at the Sales Order Line Level

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I am currently operating in Dynamics AX 2012 and am only able to find the customer purchase order number field at the sales order header. We have a customer that requires a notation to every line shipped on the PO number.  Example:  If the PO number is ABCDE and we are shipping lines 1,2 ad 3, then the packing slip has to note for line 1 the reference PO# ABCDE-1 and for line 2 the reference PO# ABCDE-2, and for line 3 the reference PO# ABCDE-3.  So I am needing the capability to adjust the PO# at the line level.  Is this feature not available out of the box?  But requires a customization?

Also, we are looking to upgrade to AX 2012 R3 in the near future.  Any insight if R3 has this capability?

    It requires customization.  Status is same in R3 too.

    Hi Jennifer,

    You can use the field Customer reference on the line details. It is not in the grid, but the details which can be expanded.

    Thank you for your response Andre.  I attempted to do that at the line detail level but it seemed that field was "uneditable".    I am an Admin in Stage so it seemed odd that that would be the case.  Suggestions?

    Hi Jennifer,

    I used the wrong field name. The field I was referring to is called External and is available on the General tab of the line details. This field is editable for me.
