Inventory Management

Business Central’s inventory management features can help you streamline your processes and integrate your inventory with your finance system – which in turn can help save costs and improve cash flow.


General Principles

Get a better overview of your business by integrating inventory with your finance system.

  • Build an inventory master list for all inventory, non-inventory, and service items.
  • Block items on sales orders, purchase orders, or stop items being transacted altogether. Block specific batch numbers in case of quality issues.
  • Create extended descriptions or attach documents associated with items.
  • Construct inventory journal entries to allow for adjustments and correct information already in the system.
