In Microsoft Dynamics AX, an item requirement is managed as a sales order line on a single sales order that is associated with a project. This item can be immediately consumed from inventory, or it can initiate a production order or purchase order for the item. Item consumption is recorded as a posting that registers that the item was used in the project.
If necessary, an item requirement can be partially consumed.
Click Project management and accounting > Common > Projects > All projects.
Select or open a project for which you have created an item requirement.
On the Action Pane, on the Manage tab, in the New group, click Item task, and then click Item requirement.
