    My response was crafted with AI assistance, tailored to provide detailed and actionable guidance for your query.

    Yes, it is possible to pass the Expected Receipt Date from the Intercompany Purchase Order (PO) to the Requested Delivery Date of the Intercompany Sales Order (SO) in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (BC). Below are the steps and approaches to achieve this:

    Solution Approach

    1. Standard Setup Verification

    Before customizing, ensure that the Intercompany Setup is properly configured to synchronize the correct fields between the companies.

    1. Go to Intercompany Setup and verify the mappings for Purchase Orders and Sales Orders.
    2. Check if the "Expected Receipt Date" field from PO can be linked directly to the Requested Delivery Date in SO through standard mappings.

    2. No-Code Solution (Using Standard Workflows & Configurations - Limited Control)

    1. Use Intercompany Posting Setup

      • Ensure Intercompany Transactions are enabled.
      • Go to Intercompany Setup → Check if the mapping of fields allows Expected Receipt Date → Requested Delivery Date transfer.
      • Use Order Promising Setup to adjust automatic scheduling logic.

    2. Modify Requested Delivery Date Manually (if necessary)

      • After the Intercompany PO is created, navigate to the automatically generated SO.
      • Check if the Requested Delivery Date aligns with the Expected Receipt Date from the PO.

    3. Customization Approach (For Full Automation - AL Development Required)

    Step 1: Extend the Intercompany Posting Codeunit

    • You need to customize Codeunit 427 "IC Inbox Transaction" and Table 37 "Sales Line"
    • Modify how the system creates the Intercompany Sales Order from the Purchase Order.

    Step 2: Implement an AL Code Extension

    • Write an event subscriber to modify the Intercompany Sales Order’s Requested Delivery Date.
    AL Code Example:
    al
    codeunit 50001 "IC PO to SO Date Sync"
    {
    [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"IC Inbox Transaction", 'OnBeforeInsertSalesHeader', '', true, true)]
    local procedure AssignExpectedReceiptDateToSO(var SalesHeader: Record "Sales Header"; ICInboxTransaction: Record "IC Inbox Transaction")
    var
    PurchHeader: Record "Purchase Header";
    begin
    if PurchHeader.Get(SalesHeader."Intercompany Reference No.") then begin
    SalesHeader."Requested Delivery Date" := PurchHeader."Expected Receipt Date";
    end;
    end;
    }

    Step 3: Deploy & Test

    1. Deploy the AL Extension in Business Central.
    2. Create an Intercompany PO, ensuring the Expected Receipt Date is set.
    3. Validate that the corresponding Intercompany SO has the correct Requested Delivery Date.

    4. Alternative Approach Using Power Automate (Low-Code Solution)

    • Power Automate (Flow) can be used to monitor Intercompany PO creation and update the SO with the correct date.
    • Trigger: When a new Intercompany PO is created.
    • Action: Retrieve the Expected Receipt Date and update the corresponding Intercompany Sales Order.

    Conclusion

    Yes, it is possible to pass the Expected Receipt Date from PO to Requested Delivery Date in SO.

    • For a quick fix, do it manually or use standard mappings.
    • For automation, develop an AL extension or use Power Automate.

    I'd ignore the AI solution as its not correct. As far as know the value of this field doesn't get transferred using standard functionality, you'd need to customize the system to do it.

    Hello,
     
    As Valentin mentioned this is not possible using standard functionalities, you will need to perform some customization to achieve your goals.
