It's really nice that BC has a new capability to purchase a "resource" from a vendor. But, at this moment when I want to purchase a resource and link it to a Job No., then the system returns an error message. I think, it will be good if we can purchase an external resource and put a link to a Job.
Or, a more advanced idea is to have a new function to create Purchase Order automatically from Job Planning Line.
Hopefully, this idea is on your roadmap. Thank you!

You can sell Resources but you cannot Purchase Resources??????

This is key to complete the cycle for resourcing projects - when purchasing resources to be able to assign them to the Job/Job Task is very important in business terms. Otherwise this restricts the functionality of resources and encourages workaround solutions - as an implementor we have encountered these restrictions several times

My opinion:
"Job No." and "Task No." on purchase lines with resources
From my point of view it is very useful for managing Jobs in Business Central, useful for analyzing costs on job, otherwise I can only map with dimensions.
Thanks

Thank you for this suggestion! Currently this is not on our roadmap. We are tracking this idea and if it gathers more votes and comments we will consider it in the future. Best regards, Business Central Team
