Posted on by Ali Waqas

Dear All,

I have a scenario where I need to create an auto PO from SO in d365 business central. In drop shipment, I can create a PO manual and connect it with purchasing code but I need to make auto PO from SO. Please suggest.

Thanks,

Ali Waqas

    You can use the Req. Worksheet to generate your Purchase Orders for the Drop Ship Sales Orders.

    Hi Ben,

    Very well, but what I am asking is, is there any way I just have to make SO and PO will create from it instantly? setup for it or something for conversion

    Hi,

    This is not in standard system, you need to take help from your developer to write the custom code to achieve that functionality.

    This requires customization.

    At the minimum you would add the Vendor No on the line and in the menu (line level) the developer can create an action to create PO.

    Connect with your partner and provide your requirements.

    Hi, there are some easy ways, but to do it completely automatically, as mentioned by several experts above, it requires customization.

    Quickly Create Purchase Document from Sales Order (Not Drop Shipment and Special Order)

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    Hi YUN,

    A very good option you told. Thanks for it. but I observed sales order is not connected with that purchase order, no reference in the PO of SO. like drop shipment, on ship receive happens, that is missing too.

    Thanks
