Overview
This section collects three general setup topics for the Italian version of Business Central. They are independent of each other, so you can read whichever matches your task.
Company information covers the Company Information page, where general, communication, payment, shipping, and administration details are entered. These details appear in all reports and fiscal documents, so it is a sensible first step. The Intrastat page explains how to create journal templates and batches to record EU trade transactions for submission to tax authorities.
The Italian Subcontracting page describes outsourcing component production through linked BOM and subcontractor operations. It is marked as deprecated and replaced by the Subcontracting app, with a migration available for sandbox environments. Read it before using or migrating legacy subcontracting data.
