3519956 - Multiple Tax Numbers Are Not Shown in XML of Purchase Order

Symptom

When opening the XML of purchase order, it was expected to shown all the Tax Numbers maintained in the Supplier Master Data. However system is only picking one Tax Number. 

Environment

Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Purchase Requests and Orders work center.
  2. Go to Purchase Orders view.
  3. Search for: ABC (ABC is the Purchase Order's ID). 
  4. Click in Edit button.
  5. Navigate to Output History tab.
  6. Click in View Original XML button.

In the XML you can see that it is shown only one Tax Number, and not all that are maintained in the Supplier Master Data.

Because of technical reasons, having multiple taxation terms on root is not possible in the system. It means that can be only one Tax Number and one Buyer on a document.

System is working as designed.
