    Hi Survivor,

    As you may know, your requirement cannot be addressed using standard NAV. You can look for Add-ons targetting Leasing/Rental industry.

    If you are a developer and you want to customize the application on your own then you can check about Transfer Orders and how Warehouse Shipments and Receipts are created from it.

    Check this link  msdn.microsoft.com/.../hh997397(v=nav.90).aspx

    to know how Warehouse Module works in NAV.

    We have a machine rental business. We rent machines per day and manage them in our warehouse. If a machine is sent (shipped) to a customer job on the 27th September 2016 and returns to the warehouse on the 30th September 2016 then the machine was utilized for 3 days. Example machine: generator rental, truck rental, forklift rental, test probes.

    Thanks for answering questions. I will do my best to clarify.

    Item and Machine Resources (jobs - warehouse integration)

    My warehouse is 2 hours by car away from head office. Head office plans jobs/projects with Items and Machines (resources) and People (resources), warehouse just issues and receives equipment. Engineers plan shipment and estimated receive date in Job module but do not perform material transactions. The stock receiving and issuing is planned at head office but transaction and stock cut needs to be executed at warehouse with warehouse personnel. This applies to Items and Machine resources. Questions:

    1. How to receive and issue machine resources from warehouse. We rent machines per day calculated by day left and returned to warehouse.

    2. How to get warehouse module to "issue" equipment/machines to a construction project based on Job module requirements. 

    People Resources

    I have a job and need 20 people/contractors. If my people work 10 days I pay them $10 USD per day and charge my customer $20USD per day (fake numbers). How do I use jobs to manage payments to contractors and customer invoicing. Example below:

    James Employee 001 - works 10 days on heat treatment job (submits paper time sheet)

    James gets paid $10 usd x 10 days = $100 usd (currently using payment journals)

    James gets charged $20 usd x 10 days to my customer = $200 usd (currently creating sales orders with GL item type entries)

    Profit is $10 usd x 10 days = $100 usd

    At present both employee payment and employee invoicing costs are not linked. We do completely separate transactions in system that are un-related. 

    Thanks for any possible help.

    Can you clarify more why do you want to have this? Warehouse shipments are normally used for the items delivery. If you are in need of making a documents for the maintenance, you can operate with a service (in accounting terms, just booking to G/L service account).
