Message ID: MC1074728
We are releasing the ability to streamline project costing for service items and procurement categories when used with item requirements in Dynamics 365 Project Operations. This feature will reach general availability on June 6, 2025.
How does this affect me?
This feature aims to resolve key challenges associated with using service items in Project Operations when the item requirement feature is enabled:
- It enhances project cost calculations for service, non-stocked items, or procurement categories linked to item requirement purchase orders.
- It streamlines project cost management in the process from sales order to purchase order.
- It improves the handling of project costs for purchase orders, including miscellaneous charges.
- It enhances project cost handling for purchase orders that include tax.
Project costs are automatically updated to reflect:
- Miscellaneous charges: Any additional charges added to the invoice.
- Discounts: Discounts applied, either as fixed amounts or percentages.
- Tax adjustments: Applicable taxes, including non-deductible taxes.
- Price changes: Any price variations between the purchase order and the final invoice.
These enhancements help ensure more accurate and dynamic cost management, while improving financial oversight and project profitability.
