The 2024 spring version of Dynamics 365 Business Central brought some helpful innovations, particularly in the area of projects. For example, you can now save time when entering data by defining a default location and bin for projects.
With the latest Business Central version, the time required for data entry can be reduced by specifying a default location and bin for projects on the “Project Card” page. Once project tasks and project planning lines are subsequently created for the project, the default location and bin are automatically assigned. The new fields for the location code and bin code can be found on the Project Card in the “Posting” tab.
If required, the location code and the bin code can therefore be entered and changed automatically for both project tasks and project planning lines. For the latter, the previously entered default value for the location code and bin code is also inherited on the project task card in the “Project Task Lines” subform.
The new fields are used as default values when creating new project tasks and project planning lines. No changes are made to existing project tasks and project planning lines.
Similar to production order processes, entering the new default values ultimately simplifies data entry for project tasks, project planning lines and project journal lines for projects. This speeds up the work process and helps you to concentrate on the important main tasks.
