Hi Techies,

I am looking into product receipts creation and posting process, can we create a data entity for this, I am looking for any functional/ technical insights if anyone has worked on similar kind of requirement.

Any response is appreciated.

Thanks,

Sangram

    You can load data in the staging  table with entity and write a separate batch to post product receipt by reading staging table from entity .   It's possible to do the same thing while moving data  to Target but that would be little complex.

    Thank you Sukrut, Nikolaos for the directions, so I tested a code by which product receipts are creating and posting. Now, can I create a flat table and create entity for same to get data in it and then write a logic in entity. OR shall I write some different approach to load the file and process the records.

    Please suggest.

    Thanks,

    Sangram

    I agree with Nikolaos . Its makes more sense to post product  receipt with in application  than through entity. Entity can help you to bring data to staging after that its up to you, how do you want to process it .

    Product receipts are something that you should post inside the system, you can't just import directly into the product receipt tables.

    But you can definetely develop a solution where you import sufficient information that can then be used to create and post product receipts inside D365FO. For example you could develop a new intermediary table where you import this data, and then run some batch process that creates and posts product receipts based on the data in this table.

    That information that you need is some unique identifier of the purchase line to be received (InventTransId or PO nr + Line nr, and of course quantity). And maybe some additional information such as inventory location.
