Good day,
 
We are in the process of going through a Fit/Gap analysis for our BC implementation. We're in AP at the moment, currently the users would enter the invoices and distribute as per location, that is change the distribution. 
 
Questions - 
 
1. Can we group vendors in terms of business? That is if we have 5 vendors for consumables how is the grouping done, what does it mean to 'group'?
2. For non-Inventory items, such as the same consumables, can it be received and if it can, at which point can the distribution be made?
 
Thanks in advance for any information.
 
Regards
Rosemary

    Same question here? Solved: Vendor Groups
     
    For 1. As mentioned you can use posting groups, dimensions, you can even do a simple customization on the vendor card to add a new vendor categories field similar to the item category field on the item card.
     
    2. Yes you can receive non-inventory items. You can sell them at any point, even before receiving them since its a non-inventory item and the system doesn't track it's quantity.

    If BC stands for Business Central, let's move the thread to the right forum.
