Power Automate – Excel to Dynamics 365 SCM Purchase orders

,

This download contains a Power Automate flow to import purchase orders into Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management from an Excel file. Both the Excel template and the Power Automate package are included in the download.

The example shows how to deal with grouping purchase orders per vendor, increase line numbers per order. The field mappings include mappings for date and decimal fields which do need formulas instead of a direct field mapping from Excel.

Don’t forget to read the License.txt file before installing and using the software.
