I have to make purchase order for the additional charges to acquire the fixed assets. There are different vendors for these additional charges but I only have to make one purchase order. How do you this?
I agree with NorthW : Seems like it's more relevant to D365 F&O?
I belive you describe functionality that is actually not in the system?

To make a purchase order for additional charges to acquire fixed assets from different vendors but only have one purchase order, you can use the "Purchase Order Consolidation" feature in Business Central.
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Create a new Purchase Order: Go to the "Purchase Order" page and create a new purchase order for the fixed assets you want to acquire.
2. Add the Fixed Asset Item: Add the fixed asset item to the purchase order.
3. Add Additional Charges: Add the additional charges items from each vendor to the purchase order as lines.
4. Set Consolidation Code: Set the consolidation code for each additional charge line with a unique code for each vendor. You can set the consolidation code on the line level by opening the "Consolidation" tab on the line and selecting the consolidation code.
5. Consolidate Purchase Order: After adding all the additional charge lines, select the "Consolidate Purchase Order" action from the "Actions" menu on the Purchase Order page.
6. Review Consolidated Purchase Order: Review the consolidated purchase order that appears. This will show you one purchase order with multiple lines, each with the vendor's name and the corresponding additional charge amount.
7. Send Purchase Order: Send the consolidated purchase order to all the vendors for their additional charges.
This way, you will be able to make one purchase order for additional charges from multiple vendors. Once the vendors have sent their invoices, you can post the purchase invoice for each vendor and apply it to the corresponding consolidated purchase order line using the "Apply Document" action.
There is no problem posting two purchase invoices or more against a single fixed assets, so there should really not be any reason you have to combine two vendors in one invoice. And there is no functionality to do that in the system.
So use two purchase invoices and post them both against the same fixed asset.
Extending on the response from Daniele, by design only one vendor can be attached to a single Purchase order. If you want to have 2 vendors, you can create 2 PO and then put a reference of sorts on external document numbers, to be able to match them visually later
hi
to make a purchase order for additional charges to acquire fixed assets from multiple vendors, you can create a purchase order with multiple lines, each line representing the additional charges from a different vendor.
Here's how you can do it:
Go to the "Purchase Orders" page and click "New" to create a new purchase order.
Enter the details for the purchase order header, such as the vendor and the purchase order date.
Add a new line to the purchase order by clicking "New Line" or pressing "Ctrl+N".
In the "Type" field, select "Charge" to indicate that this line represents an additional charge.
In the "No." field, enter the vendor number for the first vendor who is providing additional charges for the fixed assets.
Enter the amount of the additional charges in the "Direct Unit Cost" field.
Add another line to the purchase order for the additional charges from the next vendor. Repeat steps 4-6 for each vendor.
Once you have added all the lines for the additional charges, you can post the purchase order.
By creating a purchase order with multiple lines for the additional charges from different vendors, you can ensure that all the charges are included in a single purchase order. This can help simplify the purchasing process and make it easier to track expenses related to the acquisition of fixed assets.
