Via D365 Business Central, we can create a Purchase Order from a Sales Order directly within the Sales Order page using a feature called “Create Purchase Order from Sales Order.” By using the “Create Purchase Order from Sales Order” feature, you can streamline the procurement process by automatically generating purchase orders based on existing sales orders, reducing manual data entry and ensuring consistency between sales and purchasing activities.
Suppose we got a Sales order for a particular Item and that Item is not available in the Inventory then the User doesn’t need to go to the Purchase Order page from the Sales Order page only the user can able to open the purchase order page.
