Value Purchase Order instead of Quantity based

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 79

Hi community,

Is there a capability within Dynamics 365 Finance out-of-the-box to create a value based Purchase Order instead of quantity based? Our organisation engages vendors primarily on a value basis which is common for services procurement. We are currently finding a lot of challenges with raising Purchase Order in the system due to this issue. We have to put the value amount in the Quantity field and put a unit price of $1 in the Purchase Order, so that comes receipting, we can receipt based on value consumed.

Our previous finance system has this capability and we never had any issues with doing Purchase Order with procurement of services. 

Any insights will be much appreciated.

    It could be an idea to look at using procurement categories instead of specific items for procuring services.

    You can take a look at the official documentation.

    Hi Anetta
     
    Did you every find a solution?   I'm looking at creating a unit to 4 decimal places so when we GRN we can get close to the value of the invoice.  However this needs out development partner to do something around the decimal places as the system defaults to 2 on screen..
