365ContainerImport runs natively inside Dynamics 365 Business Central. There is no separate system to log into, no data sync to manage, and no API connection to maintain. It also integrates with 365WineTrade for wine and spirits importers who need container management alongside their wine trade workflows, and with Power BI for visual dashboards showing container status, landed costs, and inventory in transit.
365ContainerImport is a proprietary app developed by Western Computer that adds container import management capabilities directly to Dynamics 365 Business Central. It enables importers and distributors to consolidate purchase orders into containers, track shipments in real time, calculate item-level landed costs, manage container capacity, and maintain visibility into inventory from origin to final destination. Developed by a Microsoft Inner Circle partner, 365ContainerImport provides native container import management within Dynamics 365 Business Central.
365ContainerImport allows you to receive FOB items into a transition inventory location in Business Central before the goods physically arrive at your facility. Inventory ownership is transferred at the point of FOB receipt while the container is still in port or on the water. Landed costs (freight, duties, insurance, and other charges) are applied to items in transit by volume, quantity, weight, or custom allocation methods, giving you accurate landed cost calculated at the individual item level before the container is received at the final destination. This data flows directly into Business Central item ledger entries and value entries.
Yes. 365ContainerImport includes a Lot Number Reassignment feature that allows lot numbers to be reassigned during transfer receipt. This is important for importers who receive goods with supplier lot numbers that need to be mapped to internal lot numbering conventions upon arrival. Lot tracking integrates with Business Central's standard item tracking functionality.
Yes. The Drop Shipment feature in 365ContainerImport delays the creation of a Transfer Order and allows items to be shipped directly from the in-transit container location to the customer. This supports importers who need to fulfill customer orders directly from incoming containers without routing goods through a warehouse first.
365ContainerImport is built for Dynamics 365 Business Central, the current Microsoft cloud ERP platform. It is available on AppSource and is maintained and updated by Western Computer as a supported ISV add-on.
