Master data information can flow from items, customers, and vendors to open and post-it documents.

That means if you have the structure of information code and information value that you have attached to customers, vendors, and items, And we have an attached extended text maybe, and languages maybe, and we use the ING description functionality to create long description or report description.

This is all standard information that applies to those different instances, customers windows and item.

Now, with the functionality we call master data on documents, it’s possible to make a setup that uses all this information on the standard entities and make them flow to the open documents, meaning to sales orders or production orders and purchase orders or sample orders.

And you can also set up to make the data flow from a sales order to a production order or to a purchase order, or even from a sales order to a production order and further to a purchase order.

And finally, of course, the master dates information can flow further from those orders where it could be manipulated, meaning on the open orders, the sales person could change it and it can flow to the post-IT documents.

So the master data can be used as a default setting on the open order.

You can change it on the open order and it can flow to the post-it documents.

There’s a lot of videos showing you how to make that setup in the Master data hunt document set up in Business Central.

And once you set it up to work as you want it to work, it’s just working all the time with the standard setup.
