Product Atributtes by variant
Product attributes are defined by category, it would be a good idea if attributes could be defined at variant level.
Product lifecycle state blocking business processes without enabling ECM

Currently this capability is only available when enabling ECM configuration key.
We would like to use independent from ECM.

Expand "Product lifecycle state" functionality
For the current Version 8.1.3, the "Product lifecycle state" on the product has a very limited functionality. (Set as Default Value when released to a legal entity, and/or influence the planning for this product. That`s it.) We would need more possibilities respectively restrictions due to the...
We're happy to announce that we have expanded the "Product lifecycle state" functionality. Enable Engineering Change Management to leverage these capabilities. You will be able for each lifecycle state, to define the business processes that should be enabled, enabled with warning or blocked.

Extend Product lifecycle state enabled processes for Advanced Warehouse Module
Currently there are a lot of business processes available in the following process areas: Costing, Inventory, Planning, Production, Purchasing, Sales. For inventory processes it seems, only inventory journals (transfer, counting, movement, adjustment) are supported. But what I'm missing is the...

Ability to create engineering products for items using constraint based configurations
One of the benefits of the engineering products is the additional functionality for number nomenclature, adding attribute value on the creation process, and release policies. Unfortunately you can't create engineering products that are setup to use constraint based configurations. When companies ...

Data entity or API for reception of constraint based product configurations from external sales processes
We are experiencing quite a growing group of customers who has implemented external sales processes using constraint based configurators. The reason for using an external configurator are mainly based on requirements related to Web based sales processes. I would like to suggest to have a data ...

Item Revision Control and Tracking
Manufacturers and supply chains need the ability to revise products and product variants, 01, 02, A, B, C, etc., for procured and manufactured products, then plan, procure, produce, cost, transact, and stock by revision.
A good solution might be to create an additional product variant d...

Unit of measure conversions per Product variant
Unit of measure conversions are set up per Variant in a product. When adding a purchase line or sales line, an error is shown saying "Product variant unit conversions are not supported for this process". This should be possible.
Thank you for your feedback. We released this feature in preview as part of the 8.1.3 monthly update.

Possibility to update Product Item Number when there are transactions
Since the platform 27 update the possibility to update product item numbers has been depreciated. Product numbers can still be updated however. As advised by Microsoft we want to keep our product numbers alligned with the item number of a product over all our entities. We have cases where we n...
Thank you for your feedback.
We removed the possibility to rename the product item number in 10.0.0 as it lead to data corruption cases: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/dev-itpro/migration-upgrade/deprecated-features#renaming-released-products
We would consider enabling it again with some restrictions for specific cases. If you vote the idea, we would appreciate if you can add in the comments what is the scenario you are trying to enable (what is the reason why you need to update the item number) and if there are any workarounds for your case. It will help us understand it better.
