Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management

The article discusses the use of grouping logic in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations to streamline the procurement process.
Grouping logic allows planned purchase orders to be grouped together to generate a single purchase order based on the requirements of the planners.
By utilizing grouping logic, the procurement team can take advantage of volume discounts, manage vendor communications more efficiently, and reduce multiple purchase order entries in the system.
There are several grouping logics available in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, including grouping by vendor, buyer group, purchase agreement, period, and planning priority.
The "Group by vendor" option allows planned purchase orders to be grouped by vendor, creating one purchase order per vendor during firming.
The "Group by buyer group" option combines the vendor and buyer group to create one purchase order.
The "Group by purchase agreement" option groups planned purchase orders with the same vendor as existing purchase agreements and creates one purchase order per purchase agreement.
The "Find purchase agreement" option enables auto-search for purchase agreements during firming, applying relevant information to the purchase order line if a matching purchase agreement is found.
