General settings option to take cost centre from stock code rather than Customer.

Stock items have a section where you can fill in the nominal code, including cost centre and department, but when raising a sales order every line defaults to the Customer cost centre and department even if there is data in the stock item. We want to code based on the department that the stock belongs to, and one customer can buy many items that all belong to different departments, so we don't use the cost centre and department fields on the Customer account.

Idea Benefit Our nominal coding is based on departments, not geographical areas/customer, and this would mean less coding mistakes, and time saved in adding the correct code.
How do you solve for this problem today? Nominal code is always manually input for every line, and then also checked by a second person to ensure the correct cost centre and dept is used.
