The problems

When the warehouse is somewhere else

Business Central needs to know what was shipped, even though none of your people packed it.

A 3PL warehouse outside the system

Orders sent by email or in files, and confirmations typed in again, cause delays and wrong stock figures.

How we solve it

Integration with the external 3PL warehouse: pick orders out, dispatches and shipments back into Business Central.

An old NAV with years of customisations

The solution works, but it can't be updated, and the history goes back many years.

How we solve it

Conversion from the old NAV version with all history, and the special functionality rebuilt as AL extensions.

E-invoices to public and large customers

Customers who only accept e-invoices need the right format and the right network.

How we solve it

E-invoicing via Peppol and NemHandel from Business Central.

Integrations on files and old web services

What ran on the NAV server doesn't work in Business Central online.

How we solve it

Integrations move to Business Central's APIs and the job queue.

FAQ

What people often ask us

Can Business Central send orders directly to our 3PL?

Yes. Pick orders go to the 3PL warehouse, and dispatches and shipments come back into Business Central without being typed in again.

Can we bring all our history from NAV?

Yes, in a full conversion. Alternatively, a master data migration archives the history so it can be retrieved for five years.

What is NemHandel?

The Danish e-invoicing infrastructure, used among others by public-sector customers. Invoices are sent as e-documents via Peppol and NemHandel instead of as PDFs.
