Business Central: Warehouse Management

Ship orders on time and deliver on promised customer outcomes

Warehouse Management with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Reduce operations costs with efficient warehouse operations that help you ship orders on time and deliver on promised customer outcomes.

Levels of warehouse management

Configure warehouse processes as required for each location. Decide whether to use bins or not, should warehouse team work with separate documents or update sales and purchase orders. Should pick and shipment be separate steps or can be performed in one go.

Bin

Organise your warehouse by assigning items to bins, the smallest unit in the warehouse logical structure. Use item journals to assign bin directly on document lines. Default or fixed bins will speed up document processing.

Bin setup

Set up and maintain bins by defining both the layout of your warehouse and the dimensions of your racks, columns, and shelves. Give input to planning by defining characteristics for bins. Reduce operations costs with efficient warehouse operations that help you ship orders on time and deliver on promised customer outcomes.

Inventory pick and inventory put-aways

Create pick lists from sales orders and put-away work from purchase orders to assign tasks to warehouse team, who can complete picking and put away work without opening sales and purchase orders.

Warehouse receipt

Manage receipts from a separate user interface in a multi-order environment. Create a put-away work directly from warehouse receipts or use put-away worksheet to create multiple put away tasks.

Warehouse shipment

Manage warehouse shipments from a separate user interface in a multi-order environment. Create picking lists from shipments or pick worksheet.

Internal pick ups and put-aways

Create pick and put-away orders for internal purposes, such as testing put-away for production output, without using a source document (such as a purchase order or a sales order).

Directed pick up and put-away

Receive and put away items in bins according to put away templates, and pick items based on zone and in rankings. Use worksheet to move items between bins to optimises the picking process and the use of space. Avoid wasting time by utilising cross-docking. Deal with different units of measures for same items.
