Summary update sales and purchase orders

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

You can use summary update to help minimize paperwork by merging several sales orders into one document. For instance, if you have three sales orders to be delivered today and they are all from the same customer, you can merge the three orders into one packing slip. Similarly for purchase, you can use summary update to create one receipt list covering several purchase orders from the same supplier.

The following table lists the values that you can select in the Default values for summary update field on the Summary update tab on the Accounts receivable parameters form for sales, and on the Summary update parameters form for purchase.
