Vendors Multiple remit-to addresses In Buiness Central

Sometimes, vendors supply items from one location but want the payment to be sent somewhere else — such as their head office or a central finance department. Managing this manually can lead to confusion or payments being sent to the wrong address.

To avoid such issues, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central provides the Remit Addresses feature. It lets you store multiple payment (remit-to) addresses for each vendor so that you can easily choose where to send the payment — invoice by invoice.

How to Set Up Remit Addresses

Select the Search for Page icon 🔍 in the top-right corner. Type Vendors and open the Vendors page.


Choose the vendor you want to add a remit address for.


Select Related → Vendor → Remit Addresses.


Click New to add a new remit address.

In the Code field, enter a short code or name for this address (for example, HQ, Accounts Dept, or Branch1).

Fill in the address and communication details such as city, postcode, contact name, and phone number.

If you want this to be the default payment address, enable the Use as Default checkbox. Once selected, this remit address will automatically appear on all new purchase orders and invoices for that vendor. Save and close the Remit Address Card page.


Creating Purchase Invoice:

Search for Purchase Invoice. Click on the New action. Select the vendor — the address and other default details will be automatically fetched from the vendor record. 

The purchase invoice will have a remit-to code automatically.


Then when you go to pay the invoice in the payment journal, the remit-to code follows into the payment journal line. The Remit-to data will be what prints on the check.

Creating Payment:

Search for Payment Journal. Select Batch. Select Vendor. Select invoice. The payment journal will have a remit-to code automatically.



The Remit Addresses feature in Business Central may look simply, but it’s extremely useful for managing vendors with multiple payment locations. It ensures that payments are always routed correctly, avoids confusion, and makes your accounts payable process smoother and error-free.

When you create payment journal lines using actions like Pay Vendor or Create Payment from the Vendors List or Vendor Card, Business Central automatically picks up the remit-to address code linked to that vendor.

Customizing Headers and Footers in Business Central Reports RDLC: First Page and Last Page Tricks Suppose you are working on a report, and there is a requirement for the header to appear only on the first page and the footer to appear only on the last page of the document.  It's always a good practice to check if there are properties available that can simplify your task.

In the Header, right-click and select Header Properties. Enable the option Print on first page and click OK. In the Footer, right-click and select Footer Properties.

Dynamics 365 Business Central: Enabling Custom and Default Tables in the "Search Company Data" Feature

Image
 Hi Colleagues, Today, we will discuss how we can search custom table data using the " Search Company Data " feature in Business Central. For more information regarding the " Search Company Data " feature, you can refer to the official Microsoft documentation: Search Company Data I have added a test customer to the default customer table.  and created three test entries in the Test Header custom table. To search for data, enter one or more keywords in the "Tell Me" search box. Alternatively, when you run "Tell Me" in the context of an editable page, it will automatically search for the value in the currently selected field. Click on " Search Company Data ".

Dynamic 365 Business central: How to Automatically Insert Line Breaks After a Specific Character Limit

Image
Suppose, you may have a requirement to break long text into multiple lines after a certain number of characters in Business Central. For example, when dealing with lengthy descriptions in fields like "Work Description," it's important to ensure the text wraps properly to maintain readability. In this scenario, I have implemented a solution using a tableextension to automatically insert line breaks after a specified character length (45 characters in this case). The code takes the input string, breaks it into lines, and formats it accordingly before writing it back to the "Work Description" field. This ensures that the text is displayed in a neat and user-friendly manner in the system. Code:   tableextension 50140 MyExtension extends "Sales Header" {     trigger OnInsert()     var         TypeHelper: Codeunit "Type Helper";         Crlf: Text[2];         InputString: Text[2048];       ...
