Load carrier tracking #'s from direct to customer drop ship Purchase Orders

Posted on by 35

A large part of our Sales are Drop Ship lines that we create Purchase Order from that end product direct ships to our customer from vendor/supplier. We instruct our suppliers the UPS Acct. # to use for the shipment (99% of the time its our account # versus customer account #).

My question is, once we get the tracking for that PO #, how can this be loaded (in bulk, we direct ship dozens a day) in to Business Central so that it then ties to the Sales Order, and ultimately send Tracking to our customer? Direct correlation in Business Central is PO # is linked to Sales Order # with the item lines on both = "these now have shipped, viola, here is your tracking."

    Hi, If you want to synchronize state to BC from an external system, you may consider using the API.

    If you are checking manually, I think it convenient to use the standard Drop Shipments feature as well.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.
