3PL Warehouse and Zero Value Items

(0) ShareShare

Hi there Community, 

Wondering if D365 BC can be used in a 3PL (3rd Party Logistics) environment?

The B2B scenario I face is the following:

  • Most of Inventory Items I hold are Zero Value because they are in consignment, meaning no purchase has been done, I'm just "parking the Stock" till a "purchaser" (usually another Business) requires the items. In other words, I'm the middleman. 
  • Sales-wise is the same, I just dispatch the Items to the purchaser on behalf of the guy that I'm representing. I don't receive any money other than the commission at the end of the month.
  • Yet, I need a software to manage the Inventory, Warehousing and Operations related to be a middleman. 

Also I'm not in to get a $$$ add-on for Business Central, I just want to know if can be done with the standard features.

I've read that the Zero Value feature is available in NAV (even saw a pic of it) but can't freaking find the feature in Business Central.

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

    Hi Bernard,

    One of our client needed the same thing.

    At the max what we could is use Drop Shipment.

    For places where we wanted to track inventory and manage with the commissions,we actually built a customized app for this.

    Let me know if you need any help!
