I am looking at supporting a drop ship workflow in Business Central where a given product can be ordered through several vendors. I have the item set up and respective prices in the list for each vendor. When I add the item to a SO as drop ship and run the requisition worksheet to import the drop shipment lines it populates with no vendor selected. If I run calculate plan it does not seem to update anything on that line. If I set the preferred vendor on the item card it will auto populate in the requisition worksheet but may not be the lowest price. Is there a way to:
Get drop ship lines to calculate vendor with lowest price on the requisition worksheet?
Indicate at the quote or SO that a particular vendor should be used for the drop shipment in this instance (maybe use a variant for this?)?
As far as I know, neither option is available out of the box without customizing the system. The second request should be relatively easy to customize, while the first one is likely to be more challenging.
