Hi Team.
My company wants to implement Business Central for Shipping company. However, the shipping company does not purchase and sales goods on its own and just picking the goods from sellers through carrier services like Blue Dart etc. and then ship the goods to another country through shipping and then delivering the goods to the buyer through local courier services.
Please advice how the same will be implemented in the Business Central for the following entities:
01. How the PO and Inward process will be done if we are not purchasing the goods
02. We are not selling the goods so how the shipment will be done.
Please advice or share the related learning links if any. Thanks
Hi, If you don't need to manage inventory and item cost, you can try to use Sales/Purchase Journal directly.

Hope this helps as well.
Thanks

this article on consignment inventory will help you.
I'd suggest to please review the Drop Ship functionality in BC, probably this will suit your needs:
Hi Lee,
Thanks for quick response. I agree with you. However my problem lies with the point that to whom I will issue the Purchase Order. I have clarity now more on the sales and shipping side. Please advice for the same. Thanks
Is this a fulfillment operation? where the shipping company don't own the stock you receive and ship?
If so then you can use the "Inventory Value Zero" and use the standard process. You will have to use purchase orders and sales to process receipts and shipments.
This would require much more detail and lengthy discussions with someone with this sort of experience.
