Install Subcontracting app from Manufacturing Setup

The app can be installed from Manufacturing Setup when disabling legacy subcontracting. Without legacy data no migration runs.

Area: Supply chain. Status: GA. Developer relevance: low. Airtime: 2 min across 1 video, demoed.

Status evidence

  • Nothing said about status; launch event convention: generally available unless stated otherwise.

Where they talk about it

Quotes

  • 6:07 "system even do not ask you to install migration because there is nothing to migrate." - Environments that never used legacy subcontracting skip the migration app entirely.
  • 6:54 "You are in control when exactly you want to migrate." - Installing the apps does not migrate anything, so timing of the cutover is left to the user.

Caveats mentioned

  • Installing the app returns you to the role center
  • The assisted setup was skipped in the demo because it is covered in a different session
  • Installing the app alone does not trigger the migration

Prerequisites mentioned

  • Subcontracting app installed before migrating

Documented features match

  • Set up and explore subcontracting more easily - low confidence (llm). Docs say: General availability, roadmap id 573353. Subcontracting setup area
  • Product documentation (partial, the article describes the broader feature or mentions this in passing): Deprecated features in the Italian version of Dynamics 365 Business Central, checked 2026-10-02. When the Subcontracting app is installed, environments can disable the toggle and migrate to the new app. Note: Describes the Legacy Subcontracting toggle on Manufacturing Setup, not installing the app from there. Section is under 2025 release wave 2 changes.

Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale.
