Feature Details
Business Central offers a reservation worksheet that can help you reserve and allocate incoming goods in bulk, so you can be sure that quantities are available for your sales and production orders.
Based on the quantities you’ve reserved in inventory, Business Central displays a status on the documents so that you’re quickly aware of the next step. For example, Business Central will indicate that you can ship a sales order or start to work on a job, assembly, or production order. The status also helps reduce the risk of accidental partial shipments or hold-ups due to missing stock for production and assembly orders.
There are three scenarios available here from Microsoft to illustrate this new features.
My Opinion
As always, the proof is in the pudding, but this sounds like it could be beneficial to clients in making processes more efficient.
