Quotes
- 23:59 "I can only assign serial numbers and get put-away created if it is the last operation." - A limitation of the warehouse receipt flow for subcontracting.
- 24:40 "that's not something like very, very new because we already had it in minor release 28.3." - Gives a version reference showing which warehouse scenario already existed.
- 24:53 "What is very new is this one. So, here I'm using location which I created and called basic." - Introduces the new inventory put-away support for subcontracting on a basic location.
Caveats mentioned
- Serial numbers and put-away only for the last operation
Prerequisites mentioned
- Location with directed put-away and pick (white location)
Documented features match
- Use inventory put-aways and picks for subcontracting - low confidence (llm). Docs say: General availability, roadmap id 573355. Doc covers basic warehouse, not warehouse receipts
- Product documentation: Order subcontracting, checked 2026-10-02. If the item uses serial or lot tracking, assign or verify the tracking information for the final-operation output before you post the warehouse receipt. Note: Same article states intermediate operations do not support item tracking and records capacity only. Subcontracting app itself shipped in 2026 release wave 1.
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.
