Hi All,
I am trying to import the purchase order lines data entity via data management and I keep receiving the following error message:
I am importing a purchase order line for an item number, so the error message seems invalid.
I have also tried importing a file, specifying a procurement category but have had no luck.
Any suggestions on how to solve this issue?
Yes MeghanP
whenever you are uploading just keep the required columns and it will work

Nxhalshaikh oh my gosh, it worked!
From looking at the Excel, did you remove all "unnecessary" columns from the data entity - only keeping the minimum information?
I need to extend the import to allow the unit price and create an import for when we do import non-stock purchase orders (procurement categories).
Purchase-Order-Lines-_2D00_-Item-Wise.xlsx
Can you use this format to upload PO Lines with same entity - Purchase Order Lines
Let me know if this works
Thanks,
Nehal Shaikh
Nxhalshaikh No, I did not populate anything in the procurement category column, as I am trying to import a purchase order line for a stock code/item number.
If you think about manually creating a purchase order, you'd create purchase order lines for either procurement categories or item number(s). In this case, I am trying the latter.
Hi Meghan,
Have you uploaded the correct data in the Procurement Category field?
Thanks,
Nehal Shaikh
Sorry, I misunderstood.
I found a thread that discussed this issue, please check purchase order header v2 and purchase order line v2 entity.
Upload purchase Order using Data management - Dynamics 365 Finance Forum Community Forum
This seems to be for purchase order invoices - which unfortunately does not cover my importing issue.
I haven't encountered a similar error, is the method in this blog what you're looking for?
Hi Charlotte X ,
Thank you for the suggestion.
However, I can successfully import purchase order headers (the system creates PO numbers for me which I then reference on the purchase order line import).
I am struggling to the import the purchase order lines entity.
I get the following error message:
"Results. Item or category must be specified.
Results. validateWrite failed on data source 'PurchLine (PurchLine)'"
Any suggestions on how to import a purchase order line entity successfully?
Hi MeghanP,
If you're specifying the purchase order number in your import, then you could try setting the "Purchase order" number sequence (Procurement and sourcing - Setup - Procurement and sourcing parameters) to manual (Number sequences -> General FastTab: set "Manual" to yes) prior to import the Purchase order headers.
If this works, don't forget to set this back to "No" once you've finished migration.
Or you can try to delete the line and system will automatically show the correct line.
