Workflow for Firmed Planned Purchase Order
After planned purchase orders are firmed, the ‘Approval status’ is default to ‘Approved’ on purchase order screen, which is skipping the purchase order workflow. Suggest to default the ‘Approval status’ to ‘Draft’ while workflow is enabled; or ha...
Let the planning optimization engine and the trade agreements processing to consider the unit conversions for the items while genertating the requirements
The planning optimization does not consider item different units; therefore, it does not fetch the correct trade agreement price for the requirements planned orders.
In conclusion, the planning optimization does not respect unit conversion.

Production pool on planned orders form
Please consider adding the production pool to the planned orders form. One of our customers is requesting this feature.
The production pool is equal to the buyer group – it is the same idea – buyer group for purchase items - production pool for manufacturing items.
Thank you for your feedback.
Currently this is not in our roadmap; however, we are tracking it and if we get more feedback and votes, we may consider it in the future.

Ability to filter on additional input criteria for Planning Optimization
Currently the only filters on input for Planning Optimization are related to which items should be included in the planning run or whether the forecast should be included (plan filters, runtime filters, coverage groups, etc.) but some businesses have scenarios in addition where they want to ex...

Material availablity from Planned Orders forms
A user should be able to see if materials are available prior to firming planned production and/or planned transfer orders. Currently one can only see delays and it's not clear if material is available. The current functionality of seeing if material is available when releasing production order...
Intercompany master planning with Planning optimization
The menu Run intercompany master planning is not supported by Planning optimization.
It would optimize MRP runs when customer has lots of items (80,000) and several companies (7).
The Run intercompany master planning with Number of iterations = 2 is required so that dela...

Sawtooth Principle (Min. - Reorder Point - Max.)
The coverage codes in D365 determine, among other things, how the requirements from different order types are covered. A distinction must be made between three different main procedures.

Transfer Orders Calendar Master Planning
It should be possible to maintain a delivery calendar for each delivery site/warehouse and receiving site/warehouse.
In practice, warehouses are supplied according to a defined delivery calendar. Currently, the transport days are taken into account, but not the fact that no delivery is p...
Thanks for your input. We are planning to support the closed for pickup setting on a transport calendar for a mode of delivery applied for transfer orders in Wave 1, 2026, which translates into the period of April-June 2026.

Master planning must match Customer Batch Attribute requirements for On-Hand inventory
When a customer has specific Batch Attribute requirements, pegging in Master planning must match these Requirements against available Onhand with batch dimension.
The planning process is generating an infinite loop of Planned purchase orders from Purchase requisitions
In reference to fix request ID "1044123", users expect the system to stop generating Planned POs once the full requested quantity has been delivered and received across POs, even if the delivery was split across multiple lines.
Thank you very much for your input pointing to the design limitation in purchase requisition with purpose replenishment and master planning pegging. We do not have any current plans to provide such an extended capability in Planning Optimization. We will however continue to monitor how much in demand such an extended capability is.
