Feature Highlight: Use New Reports and Demo Data for Financial Reporting
Business value
New reports are provided as demo data for Business Central. The reports can serve as ready-to-use reports, or as templates you can use to create your own financial reports. In addition, you can generate more demo data to get a better idea of what data the reports display.
Feature details
The list of standard reports for financial reporting is expanded to include five new reports. In addition, a set of five new row definitions and 12 column definitions are provided. You can combine them to create more than 25 new reports. Click Here to see the full feature list
Feature Highlight: View Item Availability in Field Service Works Order
Business value
When integrated with Business Central, technicians and dispatchers can get insight into item availability for a specific warehouse or technician’s truck on a work order in Field Service. Having this information readily available helps businesses optimize work order scheduling, avoid unnecessary (travel) costs, and at the same time, optimize their service and purchasing operations.
Feature details
You can integrate, configure, and customize Field Service warehouses with Business Central’s locations. The integration can give you information about the availability of a product or item at a specific location. To manage the synchronization of data, we’ve added a unidirectional (from Business Central) integration table mapping between Business Central locations and warehouses in Field Service. To use the new integration table mapping, in Business Central you must turn on the Location Mandatory toggle on the Inventory Setup page. Click Here to see the full feature list
Feature Highlight: Replenish Items for Projects
Business value
Business Central makes it fast and easy to ensure that you have the items you need to kick off a new project or keep one running smoothly. On the Project Card page, you can create purchase orders for the items by choosing the Create Purchase Order action. Afterward, you can review and edit the orders before you send them to your vendors.
Feature details
The process of creating purchase orders from projects is similar to the functionality you might already be familiar with from the sales area. The process lets you create purchase orders right from a project. It shares the same algorithm as the Order Planning worksheet, which means it doesn’t require elaborated setup to produce recommendations, but it’s intelligent enough to analyse demand and supply for required items.
