The automated dispatch of electronic messages, specifically Bill of Lading documents, within the Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations environment, based on predefined events or conditions, streamlines communication and documentation processes. For instance, upon confirmation of shipment in the system, an electronic message containing the Bill of Lading is automatically generated and sent to designated parties, such as the carrier and the customer.
This automation offers several advantages, including improved efficiency by reducing manual intervention, minimizing the risk of errors associated with manual data entry, and accelerating the exchange of critical shipping information. Historically, these processes relied heavily on manual intervention, leading to delays and potential inaccuracies. The implementation of automated notifications significantly enhances supply chain visibility and responsiveness.
