This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2.

The twentieth of the new functionality in the Application section is Availability overview helps you calculate quantities in your warehouse.

Increase warehouse handling efficiency by having accurate and real-time information about inventory levels, locations in your warehouse, processing stage, and other factors that affect available quantities—for example, quarantine or reservations..

Enabled for: Users by admins, makers, or analysts

General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

From source documents such as sales orders, production orders, assembly orders, or jobs, you can access information about the availability of items in your warehouse. The information is real-time, and respects factors that affect availability, such as dedicated bins, locked bins, and items that aren’t available for picking. For example, items might be reserved, or pending put-away or shipment operations. The Pick Summary page lets you review the items that Business Central didn’t include in pick documents and take the necessary actions.

The nineteenth of the new functionality in the Application section is Add more columns to pages for better insight.

Different businesses and users need different information to complete business processes. Personalization is a powerful tool that lets people tailor the information that pages contain by dragging fields or columns from a list to the page. Based on feedback from the community, Microsoft have made the Description 2 field available for personalization on more pages.

The Description 2 field lets you provide more details about records. Microsoft have expanded the list of pages on which it’s available for personalization to include the following:

My Opinion

OK, so the title is “add more columns to pages”, but it only seems to be the Description 2 column which can be added. I’m not sure why this might be a separate new feature and now be something available through the Add Existing Table Fields to Optimize Your Pages new feature already announced for Release 2023 Wave 2?
