Regarding post process in Dynamics 365 Business central

Posted on by
Hello Everyone,
 
I am very new to Dynamics Business Central. I have several questions regarding post process in Dynamics 365 business central.
1, In general, which department (Finance, Sales, Warehouse )will be responsible for post after sales order is created?
2, If Finance will be in charge of post, how the sales and warehouse team will know what the status of the sales order? (completed or not)

    It depends on the needs of the company.
    For example, if the company is large, the departments are completely separated.
    Orders are created by the business department (Sales Order), shipments are posted by the warehouse department (Warehouse Shipment), and invoices are posted by the finance department (Sales Invoice)
    If the company is small and only has a finance department, then only the Sales Order module or Sales Invoice module is needed.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    1. The team responsible can vary by company, but it’s typically the finance or accounting department.
    2. Once a sales order is first shipped, and then fully invoiced, the system removes it, indicating that the order is complete. This raises a question: why does the warehouse team need to know the status of a sales order (if it was invoiced or not)? They typically ship items based on instructions or unshipped orders, or they work from pick/ship documents. The invoicing status is not something they consider. The same question applies to the sales team. Could you clarify your current process?
