Product: Dynamics 365 Business Central


A Sales Order within Dynamics 365 Business Central represents an inbound Purchase Order (850) sent from your Trading Partner requesting the purchasing of goods or services from you.

Sales Orders are apart of the Sales module which track products you have sold to a Customer in a Sales Order Process.


Exporting a Purchase Order


Sales Orders are created within Dynamics 365 Business Central by Exporting out an inbound Purchase Order (850) received from your Trading Partner from within the Inbox inside Transaction Manager.

Exporting a Purchase Order

Navigate: Transactions β†’ Inbox

Select: Purchase Order to Export

Select: Export

Successful Orders

Once a Purchase Order has successfully exported from Transaction Manager you will find your Sales Order has been created within Business Central. You can easily find the Document Number given to the Sales Order generated within Transaction Manager's Integrations Activity screen to easily identify the created Sales Order.

Integration Activity

Within Dynamics 365 Business Central you can find your newly created Sales Order within the Sales Orders list found under the Sales module.
