Subcontracting comments and attachments

Routing lines get a subcontracting comment copied to the purchase order, editable or inherited from standard tasks. Routing attachments have toggles to flow to the production order and purchase lines, so the supplier gets instructions.

Area: Supply chain. Status: GA. Developer relevance: medium. Airtime: 4 min across 2 videos, demoed.

Status evidence

Where they talk about it

Quotes

  • 13:09 "you can see that I have two toggles enabled, flow to production order and flow to purchase." - Shows how attachments move from routing to the purchase document.

Caveats mentioned

  • Header attachments stay empty because one purchase order can cover several production orders or lines
  • Flow to the production order and purchase document is enabled per operation via show details

Prerequisites mentioned

  • Attachment on the routing with the flow toggles enabled
  • Subcontracting comment and attachment defined on the routing operation

Documented features match

Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale. The wider product documentation on learn.microsoft.com was searched for this feature on the same date; the feature's data lists an article when one was found.
