New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2: Purchase Carbon Credits

Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2.

The 9th of the new functionality in the Legislation section is purchase carbon credits.

Many regions have mandatory emission reduction targets. Purchasing carbon credits allows companies to comply with these regulations when they can’t reduce emissions enough through their operations alone.

General Availability: Oct 2024

Feature Details

On Item Card pages, you can set the GHG Credit field for items to treat them as carbon credits. When you set up an item as a carbon credit item type, the Carbon Credit per UoM field (decimal) is enabled so you can specify the carbon credit value.

Afterward, when you include the item on purchase documents it posts a negative line for emission (in the Emission CO2 field) together with the cost of the item (in the Emission Fee field) in the Sustainability Ledger Entry table.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2: Use New Service Providers in the E-Documents Framework

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2.

The 8th of the new functionality in the Legislation section is use new service providers in the e-documents framework.

With multiple external service provider options available for electronic invoice exchanges during B2B or B2G communication, businesses can now select the provider that best aligns with their specific needs. This flexibility enhances operational efficiency, reduces costs, and mitigates risks associated with dependency on a single provider. Businesses can improve their invoice processing times, ensure compliance with diverse regulatory requirements, and streamline their financial workflows.

Public Preview: Oct 2024
General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

You have more options to use as access points for electronic invoicing because Microsoft added more electronic document service providers to Business Central.

You can choose new options as the Service Integration endpoints on the E-Document Service page. After you choose a service provider and consent to using third party systems, you set up the connection. To set up the connection, use the Setup Service Integration action to configure credentials and API URLs.

By integrating new service providers, you can automate the receipt and delivery of electronic invoices. The providers serve as endpoints for e-document exchange. This automation streamlines invoice management, reduces manual processing errors, and accelerates transaction times, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and boosting overall productivity.

Although the E-Document Services page has several service integrations already, partners can easily add to their own to the list by publishing a connector app on AppSource.
