Structure and Automate Item Creation in Business Central
Managing items in an ERP system can quickly become complex and time-consuming for SMEs. To address this need, Almakom has developed a business solution integrated with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central that enables the creation of item categories used as configurable templates.
The goal: simplify data entry, ensure data reliability, and automate the generation of items and bills of materials.

Optimize your logistics with an extension 100% integrated into your Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central ERP.

Structure Your Items with Configurable Categories
Our process is based on creating item categories in Business Central. These categories allow you to:
-
Classify and organize items
-
Use these categories as references for creating new items
-
Gain consistency and speed when adding items to sales documents
The categories created can be selected in quotes, orders, or any other sales document. When a user selects a category, they can then customize certain options according to the client’s needs.

Automatic Generation of Items
-
Thanks to this process, Business Central automatically generates a new item based on the selected category. The item includes:
-
The predefined composition
-
The associated bill of materials
-
Components structured according to the category’s parameters
-
This saves time, ensures data consistency, and reduces the risk of errors linked to manual data entry.

Integrated within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, our solution is:
-
