Enable RFQ Creation Without Vendor Records in D365
Current Challenge:
When performing sourcing, I typically work with 3 to 5 vendors per RFQ. However, the system requires a vendor record to be created before sending an RFQ. In many cases, only one vendor is selected for a contract, while the others remain unused. Over time, this leads to an increasing number of inactive vendor records, making vendor management more complex.
Proposed Enhancement:
Allow users to create and send RFQs without requiring a vendor record. Instead:
- Users can enter vendor details manually (e.g., name, email, company information) when sending an RFQ.
- Once an RFQ is awarded, the system provides an option to convert the selected vendor into a full vendor record in case the vendor doesnot exist in vendor master data.
- Unselected vendors do not clutter the vendor master data.

Purchase agreement - Parameter for the exceedance (allow, warn, error)
In some case, the actual demand can exceeds the committed quantity / amount of the purchase agreement. I want the system to have the parameter for allowing, alert, or mark error when the purchase order's quantity / amount exceeds the commited quantity / amount.
With that parameter, I think users maym have flexible purchasing but still aware of the exceedance.
Thank you so much!
