Purchase Order Archives - Show Comments

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hello,

We are using the desktop version of Dynamics Nav Business Central. 

We have enabled purchase order archives so that we can refer back to old purchase orders if need be. The issue is some of our purchase orders we add comments with other details, and some details are also pulled from the production order. As soon as the purchase order is archived, the comments and data disappear. It's very important for us to have this functionality. The purchase order report was a customization. Should it not just save a physical copy of that PO once archived? What can we do (aside from having to pay for customization), so that we can see the purchase order with all comments and details once it's archived?

Thank you,

    The effort to add/use something else might not out weigh having the modification done.

    Exporting the data and storing it elsewhere to query is the obvious alternative. Not as simple as the modification in practice

    Comments do move to archive but Notes do not. Notes are on the right side with the Information Pane and Fact Boxes. Comments are found on the Menu Ribbon:

    Looks like it will take a customization or maybe there's an add-on available (check AppSource) to save Notes and Attachments with Archived versions.
