Catalog items in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central let you add products to a sales order that you do not keep as regular items in your item list. When you add a catalog item to a sales order, Business Central converts it into a normal item automatically.
The new item gets the item number you defined in the catalog item setup. After conversion, you can find the item in your normal item list and use it like any other item.
