How can you purchase different currency items on a PO

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

We are implementing AX 2012 and have come across a funky scenario.

We have a vendor that sells us goods in both US and CDN currencies.  We want our shop guys to generate purchase order using the 'Planned Purchase Orders' program.  Here the employee just needs to enter the part number, qty, site and warehouse, Firm the PO and go to the ALL Purchase Orders program to process the PO to the vendor.

For this specific vendor, we have trade Agreement pricing for all the item we buy from them. For our shops, we just want them to order the material and potentially process the orders. Unfortunately, the vendor is set up as a US $ vendor and all Trade Agreement prices in CDN dollars are being populated with a zero unit price on the PO's. This is normal AX functionality.

Is there some functionality within AX that would allow us to 'split' the items on a PO based on the currency of the material? The people ordering the material are not computer savvy so having them copy the zero priced lines to another PO and changing the PO currency in the Header vendor currency field won't work.

Any help would would be appreciated!!!

 

Regards,

John

    I made some research and I think the best thing is to go to the SO and from functions just create PO, and there in PO if the price did not show up then the currency is different, so you have to create the supplier more than once, one for USD and one for EUR, and the system will create a PO for every supplier.

    I hope this will help you and me. , And I hope some expert here could give his opinion !

    I am also looking for a solution for this. Basically I want to upload the purchase price list in base currency in the inventory. When I create a PO, depending on the vendor or the currency I chose for the vendor in the PO, the system should pick the base currency price from inventory and multiply with the currency factor I have set up for various currencies and populate the PO. I understand this function is not there and I am trying to get them to do as a modification.
