RE: Country/Region of Origin field is not showing information in Sales order line details
Hi,
[quote user="santhoshpadakanti"]
for country/region of origin data should be taken from the product master
[/quote]
Why do you think that? This is what is says in the TechNet help:
Country/region of origin - The unique identifier of the county or region where the item was manufactured. For transaction lines that are identified by a product, the information in this field comes from the item record and is not editable. For transaction lines that are identified by a description, you can enter a country or region.

The help is a bit ambiguous, because you could read it that the data from the item record will be put into that field. I think this is not true, and it does not do this when I tested it on AX 2012 R3 CU8.
However, when I put a Sales category on a Sales line, I am able to put a value in this field. THis is because it is not possible to put a Country of origin onto a sales category, so you must tell the line the country of origin. When you put an item on a sales line, AX does not need the Country of origin on the line, because it can get it from the Item when it needs to.

If you have access to Issue search on LCS, you can read this article which confirms my theory:
Solution 908241 Country of origin does not populate on a sales line
It says that 'Country of origin' works in the same way as 'Commodity code' does in the blog post I mentioned before.
