Shipping for JOP Extension for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Shipping in the JOP Extension

The JOP Extension enhances the standard shipping process in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central by adding features that support production-specific requirements. A general description of how to post shipments in Business Central can be found here: Posting Sales Documents — Business Central Documentation .

JOP-Specific Shipping Logic

• No Direct Invoicing from Sales Orders: In JOP, invoices cannot be posted directly from the sales order. Instead, shipping must be posted first, and invoicing follows the shipment process.
• Qty. to Ship: The field Qty. to Ship on each sales order line is automatically populated using the action Fill Qty. to Ship. This ensures that only items with completed production and inspection are considered for shipment.
• Detailed Quantity Selection for Service Lines: For sales lines of type Service, the quantity to ship can be defined in more detail using the JOP Process Output Entries page. This is especially useful when only specific items from a certain process order or batch should be shipped.

These enhancements ensure that shipping in JOP is tightly integrated with production outcomes, providing traceability and control over what is delivered to the customer.
