D365 Business Central Sales
In Business Central, sales is more than just sending invoices. It’s a configurable, end-to-end sales engine built to adapt to real-world complexity—from quote to cash to customer satisfaction.
Core Sales Flow:
Sales Quote: Start with a proposal—negotiable and non-binding
Sales Order: Convert the quote into a formal agreement, with options for partial fulfillment or vendor drop shipping
Sales Invoice: Document the finalized sale with delivery and payment terms
Confirmation: Send customers an order confirmation once the agreement is accepted
Pick, Ship, and Track
Pick & Ship: Generate picking lists and manage shipments
Drop Shipment & Special Orders: Route inventory directly from vendors or via your warehouse
Order Promising: Communicate accurate delivery dates using ATP/CTP logic
Track Shipments: Package tracking embedded in posted shipments
Agent Flow and Power Automate Flow
Already built automations in Power Automate? Now you can seamlessly convert them into agent flows within Copilot Studio, giving you tighter AI integration, native agent orchestration, and simplified capacity-based billing.
Why Convert?
Manage flows directly in Copilot Studio
Unlock agent-specific capabilities (like generative orchestration)
Shift usage to Copilot Studio capacity, reducing Power Automate consumption
Retain access to the converted flow from Power Automate
Key Considerations
Conversion is one-way: Once converted, the flow is billed against Copilot Studio, not Power Automate
Copilot Studio capacity must be available in the selected environment
The flow must be inside a solution to be eligible for conversion
