As above, the purchases we raise tend to be per event, per supplier (IE we would place a single PO with our hardware vendor for a new office fit out, a single PO for additional software for the same etc).
Currently budgets are assigned at the Order level only, meaning we have to create multiple orders for the same piece of work and the same supplier.
Being able to assign budgets to a Product Reference would substantially decrease ordering workload.
For example, let's say I'm ordering network equipment and desktops for a new office buildout.
For those items to apply correctly to our Network and Desktops budget, I have to create 2 different orders (nevermind if we also need monitors, cables, software, desk phones, all of which could be separate budgets).
Assigning those budget categories at the Product Reference level means one simple Order and all done.
For companies that wouldn't want this, the Product Reference budget could just override the Order budget if present (meaning if it isn't populated the Order budget is applied).
Thanks for the great work!
