How to reference product variants when creating Sales Order Lines in D365 F&O?

Hi,

We are integrating an external OMS with Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain.

When creating sales order lines through OData, we currently identify product variants by sending:

ItemNumber
ProductColorId
ProductSizeId
ProductStyleId
ProductConfigurationId

These dimension values, together with the ItemNumber, allow D365 to resolve the correct product variant.

Example:

ItemNumber + ProductColorId + ProductSizeId

Our question is:

Is this the only supported approach to identify product variants when creating sales order lines via OData (or via Data Management imports), or are there other recommended methods to reference a specific product variant?

For example, can a variant be referenced directly using another identifier instead of sending the individual dimension fields?

Any guidance or recommended integration patterns would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

Apparently, this is the only viable option, as you mentioned. There is another option to select the product variant through InventDimId, but the question is: how can you map the InventDimId code to the source system data? This ID is generated within Dynamics 365 Supply Chain.

Cheers,

Hi,

I agree with Burham and additionally as far as I know, at least for the Data Management, what you are doing is the only way because otherwise the system would not know which different variant to pick. This is because is not possible to import the variant number field that identifies the set of dimensions of the released variant.

The only thing possible is that, if you have setup on the master data a default variant, by importing only the item number that variant (that is only one, tough) will come automatically wityh the import without specifying further dimensions:

Hope it helps

Hi @Gurveen Kaur Bagga,

You can see the option to select product variants from the EcoResProductVariants form. This functionality requires using a single field that contains the combined value representing the product variant (such as the combination of size, color, style, etc.), which allows the system to identify and select the specific variant.

If you find this answer helpful, please consider verifying the answer. 👍
