Where they talk about it

Quotes

  • no validated quote falls inside this feature's time range

Prerequisites mentioned

  • Routing type set to parallel

Documented features match

  • Work more efficiently with manufacturing documents and capacity calendars - low confidence (override). Docs say: General availability, roadmap id 573358. Re-check of 2026-10-02: the full what's new text (2,483 characters) never mentions previous or next operation fields; the item is the nearest manufacturing item, not a description of this feature.
  • Product documentation (partial, the article describes the broader feature or mentions this in passing): Create routings, checked 2026-10-02. In a parallel routing, the Next Operation No. field on each routing line tells Business Central which operation to schedule after the current one completes. Note: Documents Next Operation No. for parallel routings but not the dynamic show/hide of previous and next operation fields for serial vs parallel.

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.
