Sales Order Creation

Creation of sales orders from imported webshop order data.

Purpose

This page describes how imported order data is processed into a sales order in the system. It covers both the successful path and the rework path for faulty imports.

Prerequisites

  • The webshop provides order data to Business Central.
  • The import process has loaded the data into the container.
  • The business-critical order fields are known and maintained.
  1. Review the imported order data.
  2. If the content is correct, create the sales order.
  3. Correct faulty data in the container and process it again.

Configuration Building Blocks

Successful Sales Order Creation

  • The order is created from the webshop data as a sales order.
  • The document contains traceable header information such as number and creation timestamp.

Faulty Sales Order Creation

  • Invalid imports are marked with an error and an error text.
  • Rework happens in the container under the converted data tab.
  • After correction, the order can be created manually.

  • Always validate imported data before creating the document.
  • Fix issues in the container instead of on the downstream document.
  • Use manual rework only for approved business exceptions.
