Saved views for purchase orders and Enable resetting procurement related workflows features in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management

In this blogpost I would like to go through some features and explain what has been done for them.

Name: Saved views for purchase orders

Description: This feature provides several saved views for the purchase order details page. The views help users to focus on relevant fields and actions while working with purchase orders. The feature adds views optimized for each of the following purposes: order creation, order approval, inventory management, and financial management.


When this feature is enabled, new views for purchase order details will be available. Go to Purchase order details, select views and then go to Manage my views.

Select Organization views. 4 new views are available.

Name: Enable resetting procurement related workflows

Description: This feature allows you to reset following workflow to draft status: Purchase Order, Vendor Change and Purchase Requisitions.

This feature makes customer can recall the workflow for PR, PO and vendor in the UI of PR, PO and vendor directly if the workflow is unrecoverable.

This works in the following way:
  • Go to any procurement documents that are stuck (Purchase requisition, Purchase order, Vendor). 
  • Select Workflow -> History (Note: do it with Admin role)
  • Make sure that workflow status is Unrecoverable.
  • Select Reset button
  • After that document will be set to Draft state
That's it!
